The coach is a really good guy, and he is a good coach, the training drills he is getting the boys to do are really helping the boys...
I just don't get this aspect of it at all...
I coach U11 soccer and the hardest part of it every week is working out the rotations Friday night so every kid gets an even go. I don't care if you are Maradonna or a flog, each kid gets the same go in my team. If you start on the bench one week, you will be on the field the next.
Last week I was ready to sub the lad who had scored twice already, and I had the parent of the lad on the bench tell me "keep him off and let the other kid keep playing, he is scoring". That was the first time I had ever heard that!
The main issue I have is kids telling me so and so should not be playing so much cause they are bad players.
