Thank you.

Nothing wrong with the two friends on the team (actually somewhat likely since Japanese tend to isolate themselves to their "club" and "classroom") - You would want to make sure they stand out in their own way (e.g. chaotic on the court, brilliant but undependable, accident-prone, team clown, etc).

This actually fits my idea of a coach who likes to substitute his/her guys often, so everyone comes back into the game fresh, kinda like good old Utah Jazz' Jerry Sloan.
Friend A is more of a hyperactive type, while Friend B is more of a reserved type.
Okay, another one: Male or female coach, and how old should the coach be? I am more inclined to have a 30+ year-old female coach with international game experience, as well as being capable of handling even the roughest players as a coach, but is still considered a rookie coach by most HS coaches, who are usually 40+ year-old males.
