So Coach what is the reason league wants to prevent "closed" season practice?

Soccer season never seems "closed" anymore

My basic thought is that keeping more kids playing together will improve the level of soccer (in general) we see at high school, and provide some benefits to the kids/community because of the intangibles that come with playing for local pride and keeping kids playing sports and off streets and video games.
I would think there could be a way we could change the club structures to imbrace the idea of developing local teams vice each club sucking up the best that it can get, no matter where they have to get them from.
By the way, No I am not blaming the clubs for people wanting to play there because they have a winning team. I am wondering if this is the best situation or if we can make it better.
