[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is alot a coach can do to not run up the score. That's bad sportmanship. U13 are young kids still. [/quote]

Doesn't it show your opponent more respect by playing the best you can against them? [/quote]

No. [/quote]

Oh, so pray tell what you would have done coach?[/quote]

Yeah I'm sure winning games 13-0 is a great learning experience for both teams.....[/quote]

In my experience this is really tough for a coach.  Many years ago my son's team was placed a tournament bracket below what they should have been and one of their opponents was clearly overmatched.  At about 5-0 the coach pulled a player, but it was still uneven.  At about 10-0 he told the players they needed to connect 50 passes before going to goal.  But . . . having the kids count out the number of connected passes was probably even more embarrassing for the other team.  Same thing when you tell a team not to score and they possess the ball like a game of keep away.  It's just hard.   [/quote]
