Correct, we don't get crushed but drawing games you would otherwise win easily or losing by a few to average teams is so annoying. And I play because I still like playing soccer, but winning would be nice.

so find a competitive soccer league with levels instead of a league that is inherently going to feature players with wildly different skills.

Wait, no minimum or no maximum?

I play/organize a coed team in a 6v6+gk league right now. Min is 2. We play.... 2.

Unless we're really short guys.

Men's leagues can really suck imo. I just don't bother with the ones in chicago anymore.

Our goalie is actually decent and really good friends with the team captain, so that'll be a tough sell. How's your field play?

Also I have two friends under six feet. One is engaged to the girl he lost his virginity to amd the other is in a skype-heavy long distance relationship. Not good anecdotally.

Taller people naturally have an immediate advantage (life/business wise). But it only lasts so long.

I'm 5'11" and have had friends try to coast on their heights for a long time. And fail.

Smarts and personality trump height in the long run, ainec.

Don't know if I want to see the girls that coasting on being the optimal height reliably pulls

In college our co-ed league awarded double points for girls goals. Man were the haters furious about that.

(also made for some interesting tactical maneuvers)
