Question:

Does anybody think the season has dragged on a little long? North Carolina's state cup finals were on November 11, South Carolina finishes a month later, why?

South Carolina permits two games in one day, North Carolina doesn't. North Carolina has three or four times as many teams as South Carolina. Logic would say it would be the other way around.......that NC would have to finish four weeks after SC.

Any concerns? From a parent's perspective, I would like to see the season compressed and completed earlier because:

1. We are backed up into the holidays and it has dragged on for too long
2. High school soccer teams are starting their conditioning and we are not done with club yet
3. If my kid is playing high school basketball, we are juggling two competitive sports
4. If my daughter is U-15 or older (especially U-17 & U-18), she's missing a great opportunity to participate in the CASL Shootout

Note: I realize that North Carolina only has to worry about the Girls State Cup in the fall so this possibly contributes to why they can get it done a little quicker.

Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
