Miss a practice..run laps and don't start or play the next game..I find this rule to be more laxed in club ball..If you're good you can miss a practice and the coach looks the other way..High school captains are responsible for their teams while captains in club ball are more of just a reward to a player



This is probably pretty accurate.

Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
