As a parent volunteering with CFC, I can say that CFC is thrilled to have a rec program and more younger players and teams to help develop all of the teams. It's a necessity. To have successful older teams, you must have 3-10 year old kids playing out there! My daughters are in the younger age groups and I've been thrilled with the training they have received.
In the 2 years of CFC existence, they have had more players and teams in the older age groups. Perhaps that's where the confusion is with the conversation you heard. During the past few months the club has had lots of interest in our younger teams and for age groups where we had no teams. That's why it's great to be working with CSC to find places for all of these players to play.
