[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Wanted to highlight this "Oh - and by the way - the other team is playing its weaker players. If you lose because of your weaker players, you lost because you were the weaker team. If you don't play your weaker players and win you prove nothing except that you didn't believe you could win as a team. And pretty soon you won't have a team."

So very true. The players with most minutes leaves for ECNL/GA and the ones that are marked ok or poor will leave. FACT. How about believing in and coaching the players that are given roster spots? Oh right, roster spots needed to be filled.[/quote]

On higher up teams there should t be that much if a demonstrable difference in subs.  Our team could pretty much swap any player out and the one coming in would be just as capable.  Sure there are 1 or two total standouts, but a good coach knows strategies to use them effectively and when to give them a break.  If we are up in a tournament, the stars will rest more against a slightly easier opponent and then play almost the whole game in a tough match.  People are usually okay when the total time over the course of a tournament isn’t a huge discrepancy.  Any kid that sits out an entire tournament is on the wrong team.[/quote]

Oh and when my kid is having an off game, I’m the first thinking “pull him out”. [/quote]
