[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is at least one kid on that 8th grade D1 Mclean team who lives in Fairfax City but they do get their two zip code exceptions. The team was stacked by this guy who coached Nova 94 for years so he traded out less talented players from last year as he found new ones--two of their all league players this season were new to the team.

It is a little suspect that they have won their games so easily against all the other D1 teams.

Maybe the league needs to get rid of the exceptions as it makes it too easy to build these unbeatable super teams.

Kudos to the "regular" teams willing to play in 7th and 8th grade boys D1-they know they will have no chance of winning some of their games, whereas if they dropped to D2 they would have easy Ws most of the season and a chance at the trophy.[/quote]
The zip code thing really doesn’t make it fair.  McLean can take kids from McLean, Great Falls, Falls Church, and Vienna.  A team like Herndon is limited to only 2 zip codes in Herndon.  Larger youth clubs have a larger talent pool to choose from.  I think a way to make it more fair is to create teams based on the high schools they are zoned for.  Loudoun does it this way and they still let the youth clubs/rec leagues organize the teams.  If the youth clubs take kids zoned for multiple high schools, they over see multiple teams.[/quote]

BRYC has 11 zip codes plus two exceptions per team....[/quote]
And they still aren’t any good[/quote]
