[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd say more ice time is preferred over being on the 'practice squad' of a higher age group. I'd move him back down... it might have been well intentioned, but coaches change their opinions about players often. If he's not getting much game time, if he's not a starter, i'd move him back down.[/quote] So would you have that conversation with the coach of the older team or have your DS have that convo? What if they say “this is the team where we have a spot for your DS, take it or leave it”? [/quote] At the HS age isn't it always preferred to have the kid have the conversation? I was reading this exact conversation between coaches of my kids' sport and the agreement was unanimous - for playing time conversations it's never appropriate for a parent to lead off (and rarely appropriate for them to say anything, except in case of feared injury or other similarly big issue).[/quote]
