[quote=Anonymous]In a slightly different situation (two "peer" teams (U10 girls) within a club scrimmaging), with the other team playing dirty and nobody calling fouls, I decided as a parent that my DD would not participate in the scrimmages. I am fine with kids being aggressive in a game and even at practice, but I wasn't going to subject my DD to dirty playing in an intra-squad scrimmage. I know it annoyed the coach when I announced my position (I was also the team manager), but I was clear that he could do what was best for the team, and I would do what was best for my DD. Fortunately, I didn't have to worry about her standing within the team, so that is going to be a bit tougher. If opting out isn't a real option, you are going to have to teach your child to "fight" back. Maybe if one of the top team kids gets hurt, the coaches will start actually refereeing the scrimmages.
