    My view is that participation trophies are fine when the kids are in developmental leagues ( ages 4-10) that don't keep scores & standings. Once scores & standings are kept, I want my players to try to win whatever trophies are dished out by the leagues and tournaments. However, trying to win is done within our framework of development - we don't try to win trophies at all costs.

    In addition, we have an end of season (or year) party at which I give out 2 other trophies. One is for the MVP - the player who has been the team's most consistently outstanding performer. The other I call the "Coach's Award". It doesn't usually go to the MVP although it can. It goes to the player who I think has consistently tried their best in each category in which I assess players (e.g. impact on the field, practice, effort, attendance, punctuality, sportsmanship, attitude, behavior, listening to the coach, leadership, evidence of homework, etc.)

      Wow, quite the list.
      Do the kids or the parents receive the punctuality award?
