New team, and for U7, I don't think it matters. U8 probably doesn't either.

MD programs don't have tryouts until Fall. I am sure they will be fine.
Yeah - I heard some rumors they initially didn't get interest from enough players, but that was before this new try-out was announced. My son is going so we shall see.

But having a full roster and 7/8 yr olds not playing is just a bad situation. Hopefully you have found a situation best for your kid. If you decide to stay in KSL there may still be a few teams with roster spots. Aces might a spot for a D still.
I think this is a generally accepted truth. At this age, there should be no one on your team getting way less minutes than anyone else. This is of course if it isn't a disciplinary situation. If i've told little johnny to stop putting the puck up the middle 5 times this game, your going to bet hes sitting for a bit. Or if little johnny is not skating or working hard at all, that may happen too.

But if the kids are working hard, there is no way you should be intentionally messing with minutes unless the game is within 1 with 5 minutes or less to go.

What parents DO need to understand is that some times as a coach, kids are going to get more minutes than others, and its sometimes just because kids get stuck on the ice sometimes. Most kids are still learning to change quickly and effectively at the right time. It happens.

Using Power Play or Penalty Kill lines in a close game is fine. Putting the best players out at the end of the game when it is close is also good. Taking 3 lines of players and shortening the bench in the first = garbage. They are kids, let them play or cut them so they can join a team who will.

Bulldogs have so many teams. It’s spring hockey. It doesn’t mean much. Enjoy the game fellas and don’t get too worked up about ice time . Make it count once the season starts. Gooooo Aces.

It’s an issue in Spring and it will get worse in the regular season. He is also a parent coach. Cuts or not is parents can find other teams. It’s not the end all f the world
When some kids play 2 mins in a period, it’s a problem. Imagine the mindset of the coach who wants to win so badly that he has a 7 year old on the bench and still can’t win gold. That’s the sort of strategy that no one should defend…

ultimately, it will be a free market at U10 since all can see performance in one single tournament. Even if you play Aces, Ducks, Saint, you will get looked upon by perspective JRC, Marlboro coaches. If you made Omasta team or any other team, it doesn’t guarantee a U10 AAA spot.
Nobody is saying that being on Omasta Raiders is guarantee AAA spot. Coaches will know the kids who perform and play well. But it’s a real problem when there are no opportunities to prove yourself.
Agree. And no one is saying benching kids is okay. It’s just not unique to this team - kings, ducks, saints, aces, raiders , all nyhl teams, they all do it. And if anyone says it doesn’t happen on their team, it’s only because their kid hasn’t been on the receiving end of it.
Come on. It happens more in some team than others. It’s about the intensity of how bad it is. Aces ducks saints don’t go to Omasta level…ask any Duffield parent who left Omasta team. Or ask the kids on Omasta team who play a few mins per period ( if that)
It’s an issue and some people may have chose not to join but coaches that will develop kids are not going to do that at this age unless it’s a championship game. Doing this in spring tournaments is just unacceptable.
I think it’s hard to imagine being in the shoes of any coach, especially if they’re repping the Bulldogs name, playing in their tournament, and competing against another Bulldog team.

It seems you have not played on Duffield.
