Yep this is what our league does. My child’s coach last year had the players vote on who should play in the game. I thought that was really cool
That would be great if all star soccer built their teams like that. Teams getting an equal number of players that their teammates voted in would remove the doubt and bs. It would also result in better stronger teams.
Letting coaches select the team is a perq of the job. It is a lot of work and hassle for a volunteer. Usually coaches want to select a good team. Frankly, there's not much difference between most decent rec players. If he selects his kid's friend over your kid, there is probably very little actual difference in skill.
You must be one of those loser coaches picking your DC and their friends? How’ve your teams done in all star tournaments bub? …. That’s what I thought.![]()

How will you get people to volunteer to coach the teams if their own kid doesn't get to play?
Here’s a crazy thought: Your kid could earn a spot like everyone else.
If you’re only volunteering because it’s a perk to put your undeserving DC in all stars then you are a sad person.
You should volunteer to coach.

Who cares how they did? I'm sure they all had a great time, playing extra games with friends.
If you want to volunteer to run the all star program for all ages at your rec league (scheduling/supervising multiple tryouts for every age group, selecting teams, finding coaches, registering players, ordering shirts, scheduling all the practices, dealing with parents, getting all the paperwork in to the tournament etc), or coach an all star team, I guarantee you will get the gig. It is a lot of time so hope you aren't busy.
Volunteering is hard. You really have to make sure all those spreadsheets are entered in correctly.
