Finals- player time on court
How to deal with players and parents who dont get much game time during finals. With 12 players (5 excellent) in a competitive u12 s team. Playing the stongest and mixing 2/3 positions between 7/8 players.
Hi Natalie,
It can always be difficult for a coach in regards to allocating court time. Of course any coach wants to win but the players also want court time too. I would advise speaking to your team/their parents and explaining that there may be variations between players game time, depending on how they are playing on the day. One of your best players may have a poor day and may have to sit off.
Try playing you weaker players during easier matches so they all get court time. This will allow you to keep your stronger players for the final.
Hope this helps.
