The coach is a really good guy, and he is a good coach, the training drills he is getting the boys to do are really helping the boys...
I just don't get this aspect of it at all...

After talking to the team manager and letting him know that this was a heap of crap, he got subbed on again after about 5 minutes...
He is yet to play more than 70% of a game and there are others in the team who have not sat on the bench for 1 minute this season...
He has been at the club since he was 4 in the development squad and is now in under 12s
He's no star player but he's no dud either, he's a good solid little player...
May have to look at going somewhere else at the end of the season... which will be sad

I coach U11 soccer and the hardest part of it every week is working out the rotations Friday night so every kid gets an even go. I don't care if you are Maradonna or a flog, each kid gets the same go in my team. If you start on the bench one week, you will be on the field the next.
Last week I was ready to sub the lad who had scored twice already, and I had the parent of the lad on the bench tell me "keep him off and let the other kid keep playing, he is scoring". That was the first time I had ever heard that!
The main issue I have is kids telling me so and so should not be playing so much cause they are bad players.

I used to run the line for JJ's team and the amount of times I was offered ADVICE by parents from both teams, who couldn't be bothered to do it was amazing...
I too have offered them the opportunity to take over, funnily enough no one ever did...

Actually now I come to think of it, that is kind of what I have done by saying something to the coach over this whole debacle...
Hmmmm, I'm one of those parents...

Not neccessarily. The fact they are not getting a fair go I think is ok to say something. Maybe a better approach would be to go through the sports coordinator (school) or whoever runs the junior soccer there.
