[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son’s FCYBL travel team also played in winter Stars league and the matchups were terrible with a few exceptions. Before season, our coach spoke to the Stars organizers and was assured the matchups would be fair for our starter travel team. They played one team 2 or 3 times (I forgot) with players ranging in ages apx 10-14, boys and girls. Two other teams subbed in their bigs who towered over our boys (probably 2-3 years older all with facial hair) when we started off with a lead. Despite this, the boys pulled off a few wins or very close games but not a good experience. As others said, reason for selecting Stars league was to avoid gym entrance fees but I’m used to paying for tournaments. I pleaded for the team to participate in the Shots Up winter league instead but I was voted down.[/quote] Yep, the Stars are used to the wild west sketchiness of AAU where any kid plays on any team, and FCYBL teams are used to playing teams that are at least in the same grade. Stars just wants your money. Is your team doing Shots Up this summer? [/quote]
