At North Shore Girls Soccer Club (NSGSC), we care about the growth and development of all our players. With our Fair Playing Time structure, we ensure that all players get the opportunity to compete in game play and use the tools they have been working on in training.

NSGSC’s Fair Playing Time Guidelines, players playing time will be determined on the following aspects:

Team Commitment

• Player attending training on a regular basis.
• Player showing up on time to practices and games.
• Player communicates with coaches about absences, injuries, and tardiness.

Player Preparedness

• Player organized and prepared for practices and games.
• Players ready and engaged for all team activities.

Player Performance

• Player consistency and coachability during practices and games.
• Player performance during practices and games.
• Player effort during practices and games.
• Player attitude and demonstration of respect in sport.

Note the specific number of minutes depends on many factors, such as: number of players on the roster, number of players at a particular game, gameplay timing, injuries/illness, roles/positions on the field (e.g. goalkeeper), and state/importance of the game.  Due to this playing time should not be measured on a one or two game basis but over the course of several games.
