Have watched a few u12 npl games over the last few weeks. Kids swapping to play different teams at half time. Kids don't know whether they are winning/losing ..... I suppose these rule makers are getting their way to create participation rather than winners. It is truly embarrassing what is becoming of this game that so many of us love

All for half pitch for U12s, however swapping to play a completely different team at half time is ridiculous and the kids definitely don't like it
As I said I would have thought playing the a single team for the whole game would be of greater benefit to players. Do NPL u12 clubs have to put out 2 teams each week then?? What happens if they only have one team??
NPL 12s must have 2 teams
Why does winning 11 v 11 have to be about booting the ball long you can win building up play. Plenty of SSG are won with a boot long and defensive tactics. It is about coach setting the right environment. Just because it is SSG it does not mean everyone is building from the back. Get out more and you will see SSG for the majority of games is still boot ball just on a smaller pitch.
