[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need 20+ in high school - multiple injuries happen to every team every year! If it doesn’t happen to your team one year, then every family can have a weekend off every 3 months![/quote] You can pull members from the 2nd team to help! Over rostering is bonus$$ to clubs.[/quote] Not true. Often, the 2nd team has games the same days. Also, level of play simply isn't the same. My DD's team has 16 players this year and it is not enough. We've had injuries with one girl out for 4 months. It's hard to enter tournaments with so few players. Also, the girls need to get used to playing together. Pulling in a girl here and there just isn't the same. It's good to have smaller rosters when kids are little but you need the bigger rosters as they get older.[/quote] I was talking about 20+ Roster, not a team of 16. Anything over 18 is unnecessary [/quote] Not so, depending on the age. 18 is fine for U14, maybe U15. Anything over that, you need the 20 player roster. My son's team has the 20 player roster and there have been far too many games where we've only had 15 players available because of numerous injuries (some soccer-related, some HS-sports related, some from other activities) and conflicts with HS sports (e.g., track/football). I was one of those people skeptical about rosters over 18 and I have changed my mind now that my kid is in that age group.[/quote]
