[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Do they do the same BS as most higher level clubs trying to recruit kids/teams and win tournaments by playing a kid "down" who was playing up a year? [/quote]

How is it BS to play a kid at age level to try and have the team/club win a medal? Clubs let parents know kids may play up or get sent down either in age or within the stratified pool. I don’t see that as a BS move. The talent levels are so strong all around I think more kids should play on age level for tournaments/the most important competitions. [/quote]

Sorry, I meant that as a rhetorical question.  Everyone seems to freak out when teams do that and I've heard that about Pipeline as a "criticism" many times, which I don't see as a criticism at all as my next sentences mentions.  I love that a club moves kids up when/if appropriate (maybe some league games against a lower opponent) and then will bring back to their age level team for a competitive tournament.

Thank you everyone for your thoughtful and productive comments! [/quote]
