[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Similar to my DS' club/team: Regular season each kid plays at least half the game, but in tournaments all are told that playing time will not be equal, and some will play a lot and others not very much.[/quote]

Do you mind sharing which club this is?  I've been disappointed with clubs that follow the "equal playing time for all" routine even during tournaments.  I get the idea that you can't completely bench a player, or have routinely unbalanced playing times, or parents (and their $) will walk. But at least some tactical player/formation would be good for a tournament.  So I'm trying to gauge which clubs are a little more ... competitive ... when it comes to playing time. [/quote]

My dd’s team lost 3 girls because coach didn’t play them a minute in the final at mclean cup. This was a couple of weeks ago. [/quote]

Dumb assumptions from a club expecting that parents want to drive out of town to watch their children sit them bench, but keep on with your dirty business and losing players. [/quote]

They were out of shape and suffering asthma like issues. As soon as they go in the team’s level tanks and goes from predator to prey. How do you justify that to other kids and families that we lose a championship over... irrelevant feelings in travel soccer?[/quote]
