Playing time is everything!! What is good about being on a team and wearing logos if you don’t contribute? I know at least 4-5 kids on the 3 LI teams going to NC for WS games that either won’t touch the field or if so only for a few mins total all weekend.
What benefit is that? Terrible decision to stay on team if you don’t play!!! It will catch up at the end of the day.
100% Spot on. These “memories for a lifetime” folks need to see the big picture. Watching the Coach’s kids and friends of theirs, from the sideline, will not benefit your WS participant at all when it matters in HS. Enjoy watching these games while you wonder if your 3rd line middy will get in for mop up time.
