[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]B team, baby! More local travel, fewer crazy parents. Still a good experience for many kids. Some of them will grow into wonderful high school and college athletes; some will tap out in 7th grade. It's all fine. Whatever each family decides. [/quote] +1 I’m not sure why more people aren’t clued into this. Being on the lower teams is the best. You get the younger and more enthusiastic coaches who are ambitious, the travel is limited, there is a lot of playing time, and the parents are normal and not insane. The focus is development not winning. My lower team player who was on lower teams until age 13 is a senior getting recruited for college now who has now surpassed most of the A team players, I think in part because DC was able to make mistakes, learn to love the game, and develop at DCs own pace. B team is the best![/quote]
