Christ the King

Playing Time Guidelines for Coaches and Parents

Christ the King sports program is a developmental program geared to teach the basic skills for all sports.  CTK sports programs are recreational in nature and we want our program to be a positive experience for all involved.   As players grow, however, competition increases and skill levels vary.   

The following guidelines should be used for regular season play. These guiltiness also must take into consideration team commitment, practice participation and player attitude.

• 3rd & 4th grade players should receive as equal playing time as possible
• 5th grade players should play almost half of the game and should receive almost equal playing time
• 6th & 7th grade players should receive some playing time in each half of each game and are not guaranteed equal playing time
• 8th grade players should receive some playing time in each game and are not guaranteed equal playing time

Tournament play is up to the discretion of the coach.

Players who choose to be on the most competitive teams should play in each game, but are not guaranteed equal playing time.
