[quote=Anonymous]DS is beyond frustrated with a kid on his teammate who goofs off and is lazy, but still manages to be successful offensively because he’s a big kid and is coordinated. He’s also a bit of a bully and if he doesn’t like another kid on the team, everyone knows it. Yet coaches continue to select him despite this behavior because he’s physically strong and can produce offensively. A lot of these negative behaviors are defense mechanisms (ie he goofs off during sprints because he’s slow, he doesn’t put much effort into playing D because he doesn’t want to get burned and look stupid, he makes fun of others to distract from his weaknesses, etc), but we’ve been playing with this kid across multiple teams/sports for years and the behaviors seem to be getting worse (now 13/14u). At what point/age do coaches decide that the behavior isn’t worth it? [/quote]
