[quote=Anonymous]I'm another that actually likes the late practice. The worst is the 6 ot 7:30 slot, when they don't want dinner before practice, and then they get home at 8 and just want to inhale crap out of the fridge because they are so hungry. Also the traffic trying to get them to a 6 o'clock practice is terrible -- it takes us 30 minutes to go 3 miles (and then 5-10 minutes to get home from it). I agree that anything later than 8:45 would be problematic for us, but with an 8:30 end time, we can still be in bed by 9, which is 10.5 hours sleep (ip at 7:30 for a 8:15 a.m. bus). The problem is not just the field availability, but also coaches -- is it fair to make volunteer coaches take off a half day from work once a week to make a 4:00 practice in the suburbs? My DH has done it, but I don't blame coaches if this doesn't work for them. You can always consider starting a new rec level team and coaching it yourself, on a time schedule that works for you.[/quote]
