I have been told that it is possibly to keep a kid from being penalized for his coach's mistake. I don't buy that. If a coach isn't prepared enought to follow the rules, his entire team should be penalized.
Any help on this one would be appreciated.

You don't HAVE TO report your subs -- they're in the game when they take their position (specifics at 3-1-1), but it is a Point-Of-Emphasis this year to report them.
It's (roughly) the same in all rules codes.
