Games Update
Lots of exciting games for the first week with several buzzer-beaters and close games. There were some lopsided games and we are doing our best to move players where we can and adjust teams, but this is a difficult season since we had so many players and teams defer their registrations until the fall season. So please be patient with us as we make the best we can out of the situation and be glad we are able to provide the opportunity for our players to play the game.
There will be minor schedule changes due to some team adjustments for leveling and a few players transferred so make sure to check your schedules this week for any changes.
Coaches, be cognizant of the fact that this season there is more mixing of preformed and completely rec teams, so watch the sportsmanship. Against teams with less experienced players, maybe give your players roles to play that they are not used to playing so they get a more rounded experience. Stop overzealously cheering when you are up by 20+, it’s not time to run up the score, it’s just bad sportsmanship.
When we have a normal season with fully developed competitive divisions are matched up against a known competitive team or are entered into an AAU tournament then feel free to run it up and overzealously cheer if that is what you want to do although we recommend a more humble demeanor especially for Blue Chip Coaches in the certification process. 🙂
