HS season is rapidly approaching. The question i have is our HS varsity team the last couple of years has had what i feel is too many girls. 17-19 on varsity. This year i can say 19 girls will be Juniors and Seniors. Thats not counting any of the 1 or 2 freshman that played varsity last year, that will be sophomores this year.
How many girls should normally be on a varsity Roster? I am seeing older girls who you would think have no chance at playing time being carried on the team. Haven't seen any cuts in the past years.
I personally think several girls who are regulated to JV and have much potential to contribute at the varsity level are being held back. I also see many girls on the JV team who have zero chance at ever playing varsity and rarely play on JV being kept on. The JV number will probably be over 20 girls this year!
Thoughts?
Just seems to me you are hurting the development of some of the younger girls by keeping the older girls who have slim and no chance of ever playing.
