Small Goal Soccer has a serious integrity problem. There is a team currently dominating the fourth division made up entirely of current university players or recent alumni from the same top-level university program. They have been doing this for at least three seasons straight, consistently finishing in the top two and winning by margins like 7 to 0, 9 to 1, and worse. Somehow they are still not promoted.
This is not just bad management. It is a complete disregard for the spirit of competition. It undermines the league, insults every other team trying to develop, and spits in the face of sportsmanship. Allowing a stacked high-level team to run riot in the lowest divisions for years is not just unfair. It is pathetic.
We have raised this issue with Small Goal Soccer through emails, texts, and follow-ups. Their response is a lazy shrug saying if they win this year they will be promoted. After four seasons? Really? What is the point of even having divisions if you are going to let this happen?
This league has potential, but as long as it enables this kind of farce, it is nothing more than glorified target practice for teams that should not even be there. Step up. Fix it. Or stop calling it a league. read more
