Next year for a current U16 team is U17, which means high school juniors and seniors. That's the last year for some and the next-to-last year for the balance. If a player wants to be on a team with a different attitude toward roster management that's perfectly okay by me, but I find it very difficult to criticize a coach or club that wants to be loyal to players in their last year or two of youth soccer.

What's there to win for a U17 ECNL team in the B-Flight? A conference title? Promotion to the A-Flight for the really-who-cares-about-winning-U18 year? Again, if a player wants to be on a team with a different attitude toward winning that's perfectly okay by me, but I find it very difficult to criticize a coach or club that wants to put development of its currently rostered players ahead of winning at the U17 or U18 age.
