Any guess as to when they will officially be released to the public? It’s so hard to make work schedules for those of us that have to do it 6-8 weeks ahead and work weekends. We just want to be able to make the games.

Here is what CSL sent out July 30th.
AUGUST: Last week of August, schedules are posted for 2019. Requests for coaching conflicts can't be accepted...there are too many coaches with more than one team - every change for conflict causes more conflicts for others, which brings about more requests.

Thanks so much!
Which really means two more weeks.
That would be SCDSL.
For 7/8 year old girlsWhy is it when you need to travel 90 minutes to a game they give you an 8 am start.

It got me wondering just how bad can a drive get? I am sure someone can find a tougher drive but how about this one?Why is it when you need to travel 90 minutes to a game they give you an 8 am start.
G05 Oxnard Pal @ G05 Palm Desert - Sept 21, 10:00 AM. Drive time each way according to Google = 3 hours 31 minutes.

Donating half a day for a single game makes you wonder how it can be worth it for the youngers?
Say ~ 1 hour of actual play but between the travel time+ warmups your spending~ 5 hrs total for a single game. The kicker is if you end up playing some team for your area out at one of the complexs.
Enjoy the drive time with them when their young, we always tired to make it about the journey also so would check things out/ stop for a get together after the games or whatever to get more out of the long rides.

Wow...that’s got to be a winner for longest. We are in Ventura County and have to go to Bakersfield for a game but all of a sudden after reading your post, it doesn’t seem so bad.
Enjoy the one on one time with your child. We will be bored and reminiscing about these long drives with them in the blink of an eye.
Do you have a kid at this level?
Both teams play each other twice so they both get to make that drive. We play both teams. Being in Corona we get to split the distance at least. The 8 am vs Palm Desert is the pain. The trip to Oxnard for 1 PM game I don't mind it. Plus a can grab a pie from Toppers Pizza.
In Boys 06 Gold North, Central Coast Condors has a 196 mile one way trip to Norwalk in October (3 hours and 40 minutes there and 4+ hours back), but at least those boys are older and their parents should know what they signed up f0r with a Gold team.

The drive times for some games are utterly ludicrous. But don't forget, so many people demand that their 8 year old play in the top flight because they are an elite player, so like I've said before, you've got what you wished for. You have to chuckle at some of it or you'd genuinely cry at the way we adults manage youth soccer...
3 or 4 years ago, my son (2003) played in Coast -- Bronze (U12). I bitched and complained about Temecula to Palm Desert, but it was Coast and in Coast you travel more. Now we are back in Coast on a 2000 Gold team and I at least knew that we were going to travel far, between 45 to 90 miles per game (happens as they get older). But 196 Miles? Damn.

The worst part is that chances are you could play a team at your skill level within 30 minutes away if SCDSL and CSL would merge!!!!
