You give up on ten year olds who want to be part of a team for the sake of winning something that doesn't matter.

Youth sports are about teaching the fundamentals of sport but more importantly they're about building concepts of team work, focus, discipline, etc. - shite that actually matters down the road. You aren't a HS coach. You aren't a college coach. If you want to coach to win and have serious discussions to young people about which path to take, then turn an application in to your nearest HS.
