    Staples and Politics

    My daughter just heard from her club teamates the hat Staples coach has put 30 girls on the varsity roster. He told my daughters friend "in this town parents can't really hear the truth about their kid". 30 kids really?

    Just checked their page and rosters are not up yet. If true, that is just crazy!

      Ludlowe did the same thing last year. Huge bloated roster. I'm sure they'll do the same this year. Basically no one gets cut once you make the Freshman team through Varsity. Crazy.

        Not crazy or unheard of. All the solid soccer programs carry large rosters. That is why they are good every season. Younger kids learn what it means to be a varsity player vs. playing on a terrible jv team.

          Staples is pretty stacked with talent, as well as hyper involved parents. His options are put players on JV, only to have to pull them up to V once players get injured; or have them all practice together on V, maybe send some down to JV to help out for games. Some coaches also have a policy of not cutting seniors so there could be an overflow of seniors who won't play much. It's obviously too big but in HS there's much more involved (again, parents). Plenty of college rosters are that big too.

            Yeah, that's exactly what's driving this - letting JV players learn. LOL

                    30??? That's insane. How many actually play. Nothing worse than having your kid make V then ride the bench all season. I've been there and it's no fun. Better to just cut the weaker players---like pulling off a band aid.

                      What's the difference between 24,25,26,...30? Those numbers are all ridiculously high.

                      Gotta love HS "soccer"!!!

                          A certain senior wasn't voted captain. Her parents are funding a documentary about this tragedy.

                              Most HS Teams are suing a 4-3-3 so for players you typically Cary 2 at each position. With a "couple of political choices to boot". 26 maybe, 30 is crazy BS. If I am a parent I am pissed.
