Thread 🧵
Our league was literally created by member clubs for just that reason. No employees or ownership to pay. We keep costs low and make decisions so our clubs have the best chance to be around for the long term.

The pandemic is going to be the death of a whole lot of lower division teams.
Doing whats right for the CLUBS instead of the owners of the leagues could save lower division soccer...
Otherwise... it may get super ugly.
Wishing everyone an amazing last week of 2020! Let’s finish strong and be good to one another. In soccer we are one community regardless of club, league or status. Grow the game together!
We utilize a communications app and some clubs are regularly sharing best practices, tools and ideas with other members. With 20 clubs all bringing different strengths & resources we can help new clubs & historic ones too. It's not easy but we're trying.
