Playing time:
5th grade we recommend equal playing time and equal teams.
6th grade we recommend equal playing time and equal teams for most of the season. Our recommendation at the end of the season would be to put together a competitive team to take to the final tournament. High school coaches will have input for the final team.
7th & 8th grades we recommend competitive teams and playing time.
Kids can earn less playing time for poor attitudes & effort or missing practice.
*High school coaches will have input on the skills, offense and defense taught to the Jr. Knights teams.
