[quote=Anonymous]DS got invited to play up with the 18u. "Invite" might not be the best word--it was more of a "we'd like you to join the 18u team"--and there were no promises made. We understood that his playing minutes would go down (he was playing on the top line with his age group), but thought that the higher level would be good because he'd be facing stronger competition. However, after about a month, DS is getting maybe three shifts a game regardless of whether we are winning, losing, league game or tournament. Is practicing with the 18u team worth the tradeoff of minimal game experience? We are truly doubting whether the move was the right call, but then again not sure we could have said "no thanks." Looking for guidance from anyone who has been in a similar situation--Should we have said no to the move? Can we request to move back down? Do we just ride it out? This is ice hockey, but I imagine this scenario has played out in other sports as well. [/quote]
