Coaches - What to do next

• Work with your administrator on developing a club policy that clearly outlines junior team selection principles (e.g., balancing participation with competition).
• Promote your junior team selection criteria to all club members and their parents before the season starts.
• Consistently apply your club’s team selection policy throughout the season (e.g., don’t adopt a different policy for the finals if this has not been made clear to players and their parents at the start of the season).
