Question for LL parents

[Unregistered]

Either we are thinking of the same school here or your coach does what ours does as well.

SCC school?

Probably but it doesn't matter. It's all situational.

Question for the parents of girls in the better LL Programs (Glastonbury, Ridgefield, Darien, Staples, etc...)

1. Does your coach utilize his bench players or is he inclined to ride the starting 11 for the full game with minimal substitutions:

2. If your school has a talented Freshman coming in (ECNL or equivalent) does your coach immediately put them in the starting 11 at age 14 or does she work them in as the season goes along (or leave them on JV for year 1).

I'm trying to figure out how other schools do it compared to ours.

Thank you in advance.

Kid is an ECNL player but parked on the
bench or playing JV.

Dad is super stressed. How possible given
his kid is an ECNL player.

It's good then that your coach makes these decisions and not you.


Nothing is ever black and white when it comes to sports.

It says something about coaches as talent evaluators if they put these superstars on JV, don't you think? Teams have three days of tryouts and some practices before setting the varsity roster and can't get it right? Either the coaches suck or the JV players aren't good enough for varsity. Simple.

Not really.

If coaches are even remotely connected, they know
the bio’s of club kids coming into the HS program.

Many club coaches coaching HS around the state now.

Classic club parent not happy.

Pick a sport.
