[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it’s realistic to expect a kid that age to be totally fine with repeatedly getting blown out, whether it’s in the name of development or not. Kids start going into games feeling like there’s not much of a point if they’re just going to lose again, and as you said it affects confidence. Why isn’t the coach placing the team in a division with more appropriate competition? I don’t think kids learn much from getting blown out week after week. A few wins can go a long way to build confidence individually and in your teammates. [/quote]
