The big issue right now is that we have too many players. We have 16 total now, but with Sachin and Milind alternating it still keeps us at 15. Ideally, we didn't want to exceed 14 players but with some people bringing new guys and with some of the older guys returning we have a few too many and too little playing time to share. Too many players also take too long to develop chemistry which we badly need.
A possible solution:
Some of the guys suggested that we have a weekly elimination process where we get the first 14 to report as finalized since there's always a guy or two unavailable guys each week. However, if there aren't and we don't have a specific process for reporting and when, how do we keep this fair? Ideally, I'd like everyone to play but realistically, there's only so much time and games. Other than people willing to opt out of the team, I don't know what else to do. There may be a team in our league that needs a few more players. If you want more playing time, it's worth pursuing. Any thoughts people?
I think if we have everyone let us know by Wednesday, noon if they will NOT be there then we assume we have enough players and we don't bring extra players. With 15 people, 1-2 people everyweek out everyweek is good.
