2013 Week (4)
"Week at the Creek"
Reminder on game schedules!
-------------------------------------
We have discovered
that the paper schedule your team received at the team parents meeting is not
current --- Do NOT rely on it, instead go to the web site game schedule and use
that !!
Running up the score in your game
-----------------------------------------------
AYSO & Region 9 have no rules about running up the score or excessive
scoring in any match, and regions and referees are forbidden to create or
enforce such guidelines.
Unfortunately, no coach or players benefit from 7-0/8-0 scores or worse,
especially if it is due to lopsided lineups as a result of sick or injured
players not showing up and/or teams playing short.
Coaches, please use your judgment in managing your team to make the game
enjoyable for both sides. Never tell players “don’t score or shoot” as that is a
negative point, but feel free to encourage a passing minimum (maybe 5 passes
before a shot) or other restriction to challenge your players more in a lopsided
game.

---------------------------------------------------
