I agree. Before one game, I heard a coach talking to his team and told them that they would have touch restrictions and shot restrictions. He also said once they were up 4-0 that scoring could only occur by headers and crossing. The final score was 8 - 0. Bench players were able to play 50% of the game and their was good sportsmanship by both teams.



I agree with this strategy. No team should feel like they need to run the score into the double digits. What are they trying to prove? It humiliates the bad teams and in a sense makes the "good team" look bad. It is unsportsmanlike conduct to go into double digits. Make restrictions with goals or stringing a certain amount of passes together. It will ultimately make the good team better. I think we are all just beating a dead horse..
