How much playing time should my daughter expect to receive?
The philosophies and policies regarding playing time differ in each program. For all Peninsula Juniors teams, coaches will endeavor to offer as many team members as possible the opportunity to play in matches. However, coaches will never make promises regarding playing time and it should never be assumed that players will receive “equal” playing time. All decisions for playing time are based on the coach’s discretion and his or her goals for the team. Club dues pay for instruction, not for playing time. For an area league team, playing time is assessed by what the coaches feel will best develop their team and each individual player’s skills, while still endeavoring to win. Coaches will strive to provide each player the opportunity to make a contribution in each match regardless of ability, and thereby gain experience from tournament competition. Often, decisions will be made on the rotation, player positions, and substitutions in an effort to most successfully develop players as oppose
