[quote=Anonymous]This is totally normal for a competitive team once you hit about U-14/U-15. My player has consistently had 20-21 on a team where you can only roster 18. Showing up to practice matters because you are earning a roster spot each week. Often times there were at least 1-2 people injured so usually there was only 1-2 who were left un-rostered and generally it was the same 4-5 kids--so they cycled through. Those players played up with the older age group B team or with the same age B team during those weekends but practiced with the team. 8th grade seems about right for this to start to prepare for having 23-25 person rosters in HS. If your kid can't handle it than maybe competitive soccer isn't for them. Once you get to U-15 even if you get rostered you might only play 5-10 in a league game if you are at the bottom of the roster. That's just reality.[/quote]
