There's no reason for teams not to list extra players. At least that's what I thought.
But I've come to appreciate another side of this now that I'm also an administrator. We have a quarter limit here -- 4 quarters per day unless a school has a 5th (or 6th) quarter waiver. No eligibility - coach doesn't put the person in the book. That way if he forgets and runs the kid to the table, there should be someone telling him that he made a mistake.
I still verify when there are fewer number than kids warming up and this is invariably the answer I get.
