When I selected players for our Summer team ages 14-18, I interviewed the parents and set the rules. Since the players paid $0 to play and I had 4 HS to select players, I selected players who "need" the game to succeed.
The competition in Northern California League was strong, 40 players in the 5 years later played MLB. We played 40 games with 16-18 players. Used a Army bus, I was the driver.
In our 1st game in Eureka, CA I was "kick" out of the game, no Assistant Coach, we were behind in the game. My SS became the Coach and he won the game.
