Just find the right level of play for our daughters to succeed.

If the club doesn’t think the player is good enough to be on the field, they should not take them on the team. At this level, there shouldn’t be a huge discrepancy in talent from top to bottom.

You’d be surprised at number of families that beg to be on a top team and then become unhappy when their daughter doesn’t play half of every game even when coach has laid it out for them or their daughter isn’t producing. Then when they get cut or moved down the next year they [Censored] the whole organization.
Idea for club directors. Limit teams to 21 players.
2 goalies. 6 defenders , 6 attackers , 6 midfielders. 1 girl that can help a couple spots. Increases play time and players should be getting developed more.

You'd be surprised at the number of people who think this is actually true or the norm, but its not. Most coaches can't give constructive feedback or provide coaching to girls that either "aren't producing" or not playing. They simply play the starters and thats it with little to no real coaching feedback. This is what really occurs. Often times, players that start and get 80% or more playing time are not better than some on the bench but have been there longer, or parent coaching.

So you are now qualified to evaluate a coaches skill at coaching and evaluating their team. I assume you are a parent and your kid isn’t a starter and you learned the game from watching your sports.
