[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm connected in that age group. Paramount took the 6 best players from VAJRS from last season. Metro took a strong player from Paramount's team from last season, as well as the setter who was playing up. VAE took one of Paramount's middles from last season and one of their DS/L. Paramount also brought in Renaissance's top setter from last season, a MB from VAE, and probably the strongest player from CVA's club.

It does not surprise me that Jrs team is on shaky ground. My guess is that will end up being a 9-10 player roster, with several players on it who would be playing up. My guess is Jrs. is in the process of trying to convince some players to play up in order to form their team. Jrs is a sinking ship as a club, with the exception of their 16s team. [/quote]

If the math is right, that means Paramount added 9 players to their 18s roster who didn’t play with with them last year, and lost 2 to VAE and 2 to metro meaning they added a net 5 to a 10 player roster from last year.  So are they a 15 player roster?

That is huge turnover at 18s.  Losing 3-4 players and adding 3-4 to replace is typical.  Losing 4 and adding 9? Don’t remember that happening at the top tier of 18s in recent memory.[/quote]

14 player roster. The setter they lost was playing up last season; she's playing with Metro 17s this season[/quote]
The Paramount setter playing up was the only setter on that team at the end of last season. The other setter that team started the season with was part of the mid-season exodus of players. They definitely picked up most of the best players from last year's VAJRs 17s, so hopefully that will allow them to rebuild. A little bit funny that team continuity/chemistry might start with the 6 VAJRs players who move over together rather than a core of Paramount players that have been together in prior seasons.[/quote]
