[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My concern is this part time player stuff. This doesn't seem right. Usually a team has a few and even that is suspect. I would not want to have the PT/FT DA practices together. It makes no sense. If you want a team to compete, they need to be tight and know how they each play. We had this on our team with a few and it was a disaster for all sides. Does not work.[/quote]

Mine plays DA, and at this level you can play or you can't.  You either play fast with your head up or get overwhelmed by the speed of the game.

The PT players come in and practice and get overwhelmed most of the time...but they get the opportunity to practice 1-2 times per week at the faster pace and better quality.[/quote]

Every local DA has PT players. Arlington and FCV have second teams with PT players. MU will have multiple local options for second teams. PT is a good option for player who may not be quite ready yet for the level of play of DA but who are motivated to get better. If you check game reports on US soccer DA website all three teams have used PT players in recent games.[/quote]

Can you provide that link for the game FCV used a PT player.

I'll wait right here[/quote]

there's your freebie.  do your own research next time.[/quote]

Got me...found a single GK! I suppose if you count GK then FCV has used a couple. GK's are a harder commodity to hoard.[/quote]

Here's an honest question that might help illuminate the purpose of DP's to begin with...  If they needed that goalie to play in a DA game, why didn't FCV just make her a FT?  Why did they specifically designate her as a PT?[/quote]
