There could be other reasons...
It could be because parents find soccer as a safe(er) sport to play, than let's say hockey or baseball (I don't think that I really have to explain why) ... and parents like to get their kids active for many reasons ... to have them exercising ... and to have them away so that the parents can have some time alone in peace and quiet and for whatever other activities they have that require the absence of their children.
Don't get me wrong, hockey clubs here are almost always filled up, but there is a reson for that too ... it's called that Canadian pride in their reputation (and you better know which reputation I'm talking about :=)).
