It has been decided that bringing a full squad of 22 players to every game is unworkable for the coaching staff and harms our goal of giving everybody who suits up in a game enough playing time to learn and develop.
As a result, we have decided to bring only 16-18 players to every game. That group will be decided on a game-by-game basis and will be based heavily on attitude in practice (listening, following instructions, motivation, taking initiative, etc) as well as skill and taking into account the opponent. It is our objective that (barring discipline issues or injury) no player will sit out two games in a row. If a player is sitting more than he feels he should, he is encouraged to discuss this with the coaches to see what areas of his game he should focus on improving.
The playing roster will be announced at the practice before each contest and be posted on the website that evening. Players not on the game roster are welcome to come to home games but if they do, they will be asked to help out the team by being ball boys or scorekeepers. Anyone who wishes to come to an away game to perform those functions should ask Coach Farenell at practice.
If players or parents have any concerns with this, please contact the coaches and they will be happy to discuss this.
