He has made a commitment and should honour it until they find a replacement. Make sure he isn't unhappy there for any other reason but if he isn't, it will teach him a lesson about seeing things through, or maybe a Homer Simpson type lesson of 'Son, never commit to anything'. Seriously, I'm with The Creature. Shroooood  |

So, who keeps goal if he is sent off? I know it's only a junior league, but the rules are gonna be similar, if not identical.
There must be somebody who COULD take his place. Kids should be enjoying their sport so they should get a turn at different roles. You can't expect all the other kids to support one or two Prima Donnas. The results aren't that important...the enjoyment IS. |

Being a football goalie is one of the oddest positions in sport. 19/20 kids that play the position have been coerced,bullied or persuaded into the position.
How tall is the nipper, and you and the missus? Unless he's likely to hit at least 6'2" (or has really long arms), it's actually probably not worth his while. Having said that, aforementioned semi-pro cousin is only 5'10"ish. Also, tell him to take up rugby. It's more fun!  |
