MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER AS A CASE STUDY IN COMPLEXITY THEORY STEVEN A. BANK* ABSTRACT Major League Soccer has long been criticized for its “Byzantine” roster rules and regu- lations, rivaled only by the Internal Revenue Code in its complexity. Is this criticism fair? By delving into complexity theory and the unique nature of the league, this Article argues that the traditional complaints may not apply in the context of the league’s roster rules. Effectively, critics are applying the standard used to evaluate the legal complexity found in rules such as statutes and regulations when the standard used to evaluate contractual complexity is more appropriate. Major League Soccer’s system of roster rules is the product of a contractual and organizational arrangement among the investor-operators.

  • History of U.S. Intercollegiate Soccer by Fred Jermyn Spring 2018 Updated 10/8/19
    History of U.S. Intercollegiate Soccer by Fred Jermyn Spring 2018 Updated 10/8/19 The origins of college soccer began in 1905 with the Intercollegiate Soccer Football League (ISFL), a forerunner to the Ivy League in the Eastern U.S. region. The Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS) was formed on March 31, 1906 as a discussion group and rules-making body. The intent was to protect young people from dangerous and exploitive athletic practices at the time. In 1910, the organization became known as the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). This group first held a Championship in 1921 for Track and Field. During the years of 1905 through 1925, college soccer was a Fall sport with the exception of 1910 through 1914 when competition was held in the Spring. The ISFL organization determined a National Champion which did not involve any Post-Season Playoffs. Decisions were reached from a polling of their committee as based upon season records and the strength of competition. The early years of the college game also included The Intercollegiate Soccer Football Association of America (ISFAA) which was a service organization of institutions that sponsored intercollegiate soccer. It began in 1926 on the East Coast and, by 1970, became known as The Intercollegiate Soccer Association of America (ISAA). From its inception in 1926 and through 1958, the ISFAA announced the National Champions. Again, these were mythical honors. For some years, post-season games were held under the guise of being playoffs but the actual game results did not always translate to the winner being recognized as the National Champion.

  • British Columbia Soccer Association Honorary Life Member Biographies
    British Columbia Soccer Association Honorary Life Member Biographies November 2019 British Columbia Soccer Association Honorary Life Member Biographies Life Membership of the British Columbia Soccer Association is presented to individuals in recognition of long-time service and distinguished contributions to soccer in British Columbia. BC Soccer Honorary Life Members include those who became Life Members of BC Soccer or of BC Youth Soccer prior to the amalgamation in 1998 and those who have become Life Members of the BC Soccer Association since 1999. Up to 2019, life membership has been bestowed on 81 people who have made a lasting impact on the development of the sport in BC over the last 120 years. This document gives short biographies of all Life Members of the Association. Where known, in each case their profile includes: a photograph; a one-sentence summary; how they became involved in soccer; their history and achievements as a player, coach, official and in leadership positions; and their awards and recognition. We have tried to keep the profiles within 250 words. Profiles are available for all life members, but information is limited on the earliest inductees. Similarly, the specific dates on which some Life Members who were inducted before 1963 are not known. This document was prepared by Life Members Roger Barnes and Rob Brown. They drew on profiles in the 1998 BC Youth Annual Report, other BC Soccer publications, published newspaper sources and much appreciate biographical notes and help from Life Members and others in the community. We expect that this report contains some errors and omissions.
