[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a problem when it interferes with the development of the kids. If helter-skelter is making it too difficult to learn chemistry and team play, that is an issue. But conversely, if you are traveling to a tournament or game in another state and due to the substitution rule your kid doesn't get to play, well that kind of sucks too (and yes, that happens).

There is no substitution rule that would keep a kid from playing. Your coach is lying if they are blaming sub rules. [/quote]

From the US Soccer DA rules:

"For Boys U-16/17 and U-18/19 Academy games there will be a maximum of five (5) substitutions per game with no re-entry across three “moments”.

A "moment" is when the substitution is made, so if you do 1 sub the first moment, 1 the second and 1 in the third moment you are out of 'moments' and can no longer make any subs. Note the moment rule applies to boys and girls over 13, so if improperly managed you can run out of substitution moments quite easily at any age level.

p.s. the game-day roster is 18 kids.
