If the teams are now to be split equally, it remains that games should also. By this, example, if there are 5 home games, TEAM A should have 2 games at 9:30 and TEAM B should have 3. Then, the away games, TEAM A has 3 and TEAM B has 2. This allows the 2 teams to enjoy the home game crowd. The Silvers never experienced that last year as they played last or away and were never slotted in the 11:30 time.
The 2 mosquito teams this year should also be scheduled in the same way.
If the process is equality then the above is the only way to do the game splits.
This also takes away the stigma of a good/bad team.


good suggestion

Last year my son was a Silver but we also saw a lot of the other games. It would be nice to play some of our games on the main game day. The atmosphere is really terrific.

The biggest problem with situations like this is the scheduling of the parks. Are the fields available? In a perfect world everyone gets what they want. But you have to consider all options.

Not sure what you mean, 2 teams have to be scheduled for games???? So whether one plays at 9:30 or the other, don't get your point about availability... they both have to be scheduled.

I am not talking about the teams. More the fields.

I understand the town is behind you however you still need. When scheduling teams to play. It is great to say Yes this week will be a home game at 9:30. But Wait oops sorry a Soccer assocaition needs the facility for a soccer tournament. Or some flag football team has booked the field that day. ect. Teams are always available but is the field. And yes even if you have a dedicated football field Soccer could put up a temp soccer goal for a tournament. Seen it been there and I have the tshirt. Money talks folks and if a Soccer association is willing to pay more for the fields for a Special event that brings in more tourist guess what You wont be playing at home that weekend.

I am sure the association execs will make sure all is fair. Just have faith like someone else mentioned

Beginning early August, the football field is exclusively for the football association. There is no other association that would organize an event on the weekend.
It's been that way since 2001.
So, availability is absolutely not an issue. The issue now is to make sure that the 2 peewee teams get to play in the 9:30 timeslot equally, since equality is the name of the game this year.

Si il y a deux equipes soit peewee ou mousquites, alors la seule facon de seduler les parties sont de les diviser egalement. Cela veut dire sur 10 joutes en saison, une equipe en joue 5 a 9:30 a.m. et l'autre equipe joue 5 a 9:30 a.m.
Les mousquites, c'est 5 a 11:30 pour une equipe et 5 a 11:30 pour l'autre. Alors, cela veut dire sur 5 parties a St. Laz, une equipe (ex: peewee) pourra joue 2 fois a 9:30 et l'autre 3 fois a 9:30... et les joutes a l'exterieure, 3 fois pour une equipe et 2 fois pour l'autre a 9:30.
Comme le parent disait, on enleve le probleme aussi qu'une equipe pense qu'elle est moins bonne si cette equipe joue toujours separer de tous le monde.

Any word on how this will playout? Very doable so let's make sure the 2 teams get equal games with the "big" crowd. Same for the mosquites.
