Let the kids on the roster play ,win or lose there is no reason to bring other kids in. They are not the only team doing this and the league needs to be proactive.


What town and what age group?
It’s pretty lame to bring in ringers at any level, but to do it at the PAL level is pretty sad. I’m sure these coaches go home and thump their chests after each win and convince themselves that they’re doing the right thing. This is why I think the school coaches should play a bigger role in town ball (boy and girls). The reality is most of these kids are the future of the school’s athletic program and by letting kids from out of the district play just because they’re studs, takes away from developing a formidable school team for the future. It’s also not fair to the kid that works hard and comes down to every practice, only to lose playing time because some Psycho daddy wants to win. If you’re a parent who sees this happening on your team, you should tell the coach to end it now.


Let the school coach take a bigger role; may work in districts like WI,NP,WM. But; in districts such as Longwood, etc; that will not work at all.
