Yeah frick kids' self esteem!!!
They don't care.
My school got bludgeoned all the time growing up, we didn't care five minutes after the game. 8 year olds have short memories.

I coached t-ball for both of my kids, we kept score, they care for about .5 seconds and then want to know if they still get a free coke.

This. I played Tball and peewee football...we went undefeated in peewee, the same year didn't win a single tball game. I don't remember feeling much different...in fact I remember telling my dad that I don't understand why we got a trophy when we didn't win anything..I think he was extremely proud of me at that moment

I don't agree at all with requiring equal play time..kids need to learn that those who are the best at something succeed, it gives kids motivation to work hard and be the best.
