Referees are mostly terrible. They seem to have their favorite teams and will ignore calls against them. Instead they will penalize the opposing teams for anything they can think of. It's supposed to be a recreational league, but the leagues are half made up of select club teams, which rapidly demoralizes non- club teams and players who are in their first seasons playing. Some of the kids and parents I have spoken to are reluctant to sign up again because of this. No wonder soccer in the US is on such a decline.
