That is the great thing about this game you can score goals in bunches. Jeez, scoring 3 goals in 90 seconds is not uncommon at all. We had a team down 6-0 at our last tournament and the final score was 9-8 and we are a 6th grade team. They never took the free clear and they almost came back and beat us, but in essence they acted like they won the game and in many ways they did win and they learned. At what point is it acceptable to not have that rule, middle school, high school...when is the mental fortitude sufficient to handle getting beaten by a large margin? I am guessing you guys have a lot of "participation" trophies on the mantle.
