I am a little confused about the minutes.
1. What is the right range for a young player per week?
2. Does that week start on sunday or friday? Because sunday starts a week. But, friday is training day.
3. Do scrimmages count?
Thanks

1) 48-75 minutes, according to the Game Manual. The general consensus is that the "sweet spot" is 50-60 minutes.
2) Training wise, the week ends and starts on a Friday.
3) Scrimmages don't count toward your placing in your league, if that's what you mean.

Everything Big Dogs said was correct, except for #3, I believe you were asking if scrimmages count towards minutes, and yes they do.

Just to add on. The cup games count towards minutes as well. So these first couple of weeks when you are in the cup is when you will have the hardest time managing minutes due to play 3 games a week rather than 2.
