I am assuming that you are saying that being at 12 / 13 players is optimal because of playing time / training ability . . . is that correct? If I am in a private league, public league and scrimmaging every week (or tournament), that provides for 5 games per week --- that should be enough to develop 15 players shouldn't it? I guess my concern is having a couple players available to step in if there is an injury.

Thanks for your comments.

You are correct in your assumption that 12/13 players is optimal for training purposes. However, I believe you have an incorrect assumption in your statement. Only the two regular season games (Saturday/Tuesday) and the optional scrimmage (Thursday) count towards building minutes for training. Private League Games (Friday), while very fun and extremely useful in other ways, are not counted towards the minutes for training.

I used to have 15 players... it just becomes really difficult to juggle the lineups to get wins and get to optimal minutes for game shape/training.

Good luck in the playoffs. I might be seeing you in a week.

With less than 15 players, don't you harm game shape by requiring some players to play well over 48-60 minutes?

Not if you get a good rotation. Generally speaking, the sweet range is probably more in the range of 55-70... so getting a bit more isn't that bad.

Once out of the cup, my general plan is to have set starters and backups... then in the scrimmage, get whoever didn't get to 48 minutes to that number. That will not only set them up for training, it will generally not harm their game shape (and may even increase it).

I currently have a 13 man roster... and plan on selling off a player after my cup run ends to get it down to 12. All but one player is at proficient or strong game shape.

[However, I am very strong for my current league, so it is a little bit easier for me to parse out minutes. On the other hand, I am still in the cup (and keep going on the road...) which makes it a bit harder.]

Hey Bob -

Welcome to the league. There are some really good coaches in here . . . . . but not a very talkative group! I will only be in this league for another 24 hours or so - as I was fortunate enough to win promotion this season, but feel free to reach out with any questions. It looks like you have been active with your team, good stuff. Get some good players and give Gassers a run for his money next season . . . he is building quite a team over there.

Good luck!
