If your kids dont play soccer when they are 5-6, you are a Commie.

There's no real way to de-escalate the situation, except just make them go sit in the car. Warning them just makes it worse.
I think there should be some sort of time out for kids who foul outside of normal contact. Say 5 minutes, sub the player...no card. Just to defuse what's going on. The card system is so rarely used there's no real way to refocus the kids...go take a break so your damn parent can calm down and the parents of the kid you hurt feel like something was done.

Reading this final America Shark Jump makes me want to punch Lee Greenwood in the fricking throat.

You don't punish the kid because their parent can't control their emotions.

This is part of the draw to lacrosse. Zero tolerance for douchebag parent bullshite. ZERO.

We haven't played rec in a while, but I don't remember parents ever being an issue. I live in a small town and it was hardly competitive.
Holy crap though, club soccer gets intense. The better the team, the better the parents. Still though, you hope to play a team with skilled defenders or it gets bad.
My boy is playing U12 this upcoming 'season' (fall) so I hope it's even better. The quality of our tournaments should be better.

How is there enough officiating in little league soccer to where parents get upset?

The league will support us when we relay the issues that we see, but they rarely have reps watching the games so that they can cut it out before it really gets going. We often have 16 year old refs out there by themselves with no support.

We play a Chivas team this weekend and I love how animated the Mexican parents are. Every dad's a coach. Those kids usually play tough as nails, but pretty straight up. They play the ball and would rather beat you at your best.
The shite teams try to take out players. That's some bs. I've actually heard parents justify a hurt player by saying 'well it was their best kid'.

5 year old boys baseball, league semifinals last night, 4 dads (2 from each team) got into a fistfight in the stands.
Same game, a HC and an assistant coach from the same team were ejected for cussing out the umpires.
5 year olds. Rec ball.

You going to send your son to the coast's dynasty, Stanislaus?

Understand that. We played soccer way back in the day (2009-2010). Saw lots of young refs.
Lacrosse refs are adults though. And that changes the dynamic quite a bit.

Yea, he's going there. Probably run track and play soccer...but we go up to the field and placekick there too. No one supports young kickers so we'll have to just see what happens when he gets there for Jr high.

When I was in college I did a lot of officiating to make beer and car money. One night I had to go call games at a park that did something interesting. They put up a 4 foot tall home run fence, drug all the bleachers behind the fence, and got black tarps and covered the entire backstop, backs of the dugouts, and foul line fence down to about 50 feet past the bases with said tarps. So esentially you could not stand behind the backstop or dugouts and see anything.
By far the easiest two games I worked that entire season. I didn't hear a peep from the fans.

I still don't understand what people have against soccer, its not a horrible sport at all.
Its extremely exciting to watch, well if you watch any games in Europe. USA is still lagging behind in the mens side unfortunately, but at the highest level its fun. No there aren't 50 points being scored but games are usually always close and there are a lot of moments in the game where one gets extremely close to scoring but don't.

As bad as the parents can be for youth games, I referee high school soccer and those parents are exponentially worse
