Applies to competitive age groups - Rather than postpone games would you be willing to play a 9 a-side game. Many teams postpone or even fold because they can only get 12 regular players.
In a Facebook poll of 97 respondents, 30.9% chose “Yes, if it means playing rather than not we would be willing to try”. How we count
Yes, if it means playing rather than not we would be willing to try
30.9%30
No - it just doesn't seem right
18.6%18
No - we would lose kids if we could only put 9 on at a time, we have more than double that turn up for games
17.5%17
Compromise - 11 a-side.
11.3%11
Yes - but only at peak times (school hols, exam time - or just after exams).
9.3%9
Possibly - but If teams want that to be an option - they have to be in the lower divisions.
8.2%8
Yes all the time - we very often only have 11-13 play anyway.
