Team Organization: SHLC typically strives to maintain grade level teams, but may combine among levels where necessary based on enrollment or other factors. To the extent grade level enrollment is particularly high, the SHLC Board has the discretion to divide into two teams or form pods to ensure appropriate in-game rosters. These decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis and clearly communicated to parents.

Playing Time Philosophy: The goal is to provide roughly equal playing time to all players over the course of the season. It is the intention of the club that each player shall play at least a reasonable portion of each game, but playing time may vary on a game-by-game basis, taking into account factors such as age and competition level, practice attendance and attitude.

Communication: Parents are encouraged to reach out to their team coaches with any concerns, though the parent must comply with the 24-hour rule set forth in the Adult Code of Conduct. You may also reach out to a SHLC Board program or coaches director on a confidential basis for a consultation in advance of a discussion with your coach.
