I dont know what exactly was said in your pre-game, but the following statement from the coach leads me to believe maybe it was too much???? JMO

Personally, I've found "less is more" to be quite accurate. The more we say in pre-game, the more ammunition we give coaches to use on us.
I'm sure we've seen the ol "we're gonna let em play" & "we're gonna work hard for you" lines come back to bite us in the behind.
Working a mens league the other night & my partner chose to have pre-game meetings

with the teams individually. Needless to say, I chose not to take part of THAT. Apparently he told them we were going to let them play like men. 3 minutes in he has a ticky-tack & guess what the players said...
