[quote=Anonymous]No- playing time is not a democracy once you hit ECNL. Generally defenders are in most of the game. If you are a 'sub' for a defender position you might get little playing time--like 10 minutes. For the rest of the positions, if your kid is not starting you are likely getting half a game (or maybe less if it is a very competitive game). ECNL sub rules mean that Coach is not incented to remove the starters because he can't put them back in if necessary later in the half. So, it does create a disincentive to take out the starters too early. The equal playing time was a thing in U-12 and below, but not once you hit ECNL. At that point, its whatever combination of players the coach thinks can win the game (it's no longer just about development).... [/quote]
