[quote=Anonymous]If they enjoy it and can behave then it doesn’t matter their ability. But if they are being too silly, it’s probably ruining the experience for the kids who genuinely want to play and improve. It’s also frustrating for the coach. When my kids were young DH coached various sports and I was usually a manager. I couldn’t believe some of the outrageous behavior I witnessed. DS played on a soccer team at that age where kids took 30 minutes of the hour practice just to settle down enough for the coach to teach skills. Even then a few kids were kicking balls purposely into the woods or wrestling around. I stayed at the field to help the coach supervise because the coach couldn’t accomplish anything. My son complained the entire time that he hated the team as a result. Both my boys were complete goofballs at that age but we expected them to show respect to their coaches and teammates. [/quote]
