[quote=Anonymous]In our town, travel basketball starts in 5th grade. The 5th grade teams are balanced. 6th grade sorts players into A and B teams. That A team then automatically becomes the 7th grade team (the coach is also the travel association president, so he knows the kids). Two of the top B team kids will also make the 7th grade roster. 8th grade keeps the same roster, but will add a couple more B team kids if they’ve played club or otherwise worked on their skills during the year. The travel kids who get cut switch to rec if they are still interested in basketball. Of the kids who make the middle school team, usually about four or five are serious players who play for high level AAU clubs. They’ll be varsity starters in HS. The rest are just along for the ride.[/quote]
