13. Coaches will do their best to provide equal playing time for the regular tournament games to the players that attend practice sessions and are solid team players. – There are circumstances throughout each game that can limit a coaches’ ability to provide equal playing time. Please know the coaches do their best to manage the playing time. This is a competitive program and once each team enters the playoff portion of a tournament, the coach is no longer bound to provide equal playing time during the playoff games of a tournament. – If your son has a question about his playing time, please have the player address the coaches at an appropriate time. The middle of a game is NOT an appropriate time. If the player is still unclear you can approach the coach and RATIONALLY discuss your concerns. ALL of our coaches have a tremendous amount of experience. You may not always agree with them, but providing unequal playing time is never done on purpose! If your son cannot make a practice we expect the PLAYER to call the coach and explain his absence. Rosters will be provided with coaches contact information.
