    What about when the coach is playing a kid in front of your kid that is not as good as your kid? This happens all the time and coaches should be called out for it.

    The best option if your kid is getting screwed is just to have them quit the team and find another place to play, if we apply this to club soccer. No reason to ever sit the bench. Find a level you can be a starter and go there.

    If it's in HS, you are sol. Either outwork the person in front of you on the depth chart, accept it and be a good teammate or quit. HS sports is much more a meritocracy than club soccer.

      ^ you're assuming the parent is a qualified judge of talent. Most soccer parents never played the game themselves, therefore aren't really qualified. There's a parental lens in all of youth sports anyway. At the younger ages, it should be qual PT. In MS PT starts to be something earned but won't always be equal. By HS, especially in HS sports, it's earned.

      Sure plenty of HS coaches aren't that great, but it's their program and their choices. Parents should not be going to the athletic department complaining about their kids' PT. Your child should be self advocating at this point. In life things won't always go your way. How you handle that is a learning process and in the end matters more than the actual outcome. Now is the time to start figuring that out.

          95% of coaches that played the game are ignorant AF. Think about your own coach!
