[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do they balance the teams without having a draft? [/quote]

They don't. You end up with a ton of blowouts and a miserable experience for the kids on the noncompetitive teams. The kids on the good teams learn the mercy rules quickly; DD's team has a special defense they play once they reach the point that they can't defend past the foul line. [/quote]

Why on earth would anyone sign their kid up to play in a league like this? [/quote]

Seriously! I have never heard of a basketball rec league that didn’t care about balanced teams. That’s not fun for any of the kids.

And yes, a kid who can barely dribble should get a turn once or twice a game playing point guard. It’s REC.[/quote]

Coaches like you are the reason DD plays county now. The tall kid who can dribble better than the coaches kid may want to play the point on occasion or take an outside jumper instead of constantly having to stand in the post. Thankfully, her travel coach plays kids based on where they are capable of playing rather than where the coach prefers them.[/quote]
