Why does SV have kids missing? Is it still off the field problems? If so - I would question the whole understanding of "full strength." Having enough character to play the game is just as important as having enough skill to play the game. If they are not disciplined enough and don't love the game enough to keep soccer qualified - then this is a team that is only capable of playing at maybe 75% level. So - lower the expectation to a 75% level team as you would a team will only 75% skill level. There is no such thing as a "full strength" SV team because some ( by no means all - there are some great kids on that team ) of the kids don't have the off field discipline to play at full strength on the field.
