It all started a couple years ago, maybe 3 years. That all Orgs. are doing this now...
Teams started lets say, 14u. Then when 12u comes up next year, they become 13U. Because 14u is now only in 2nd season. 2 teams now in 14u.
How magnify that with all the teams doing it in Org..(9u,10u)-(11u,12u)-(13u,14u)-(15u,16u)-(17u,18u)
..
Some orgs. have 3 teams within age bracket
The ball really starts rolling when the girls jump ship, No players coming up in Org. and coach now needs to look for players outside Org.
Coaches upset, parents upset, Players are in limbo with coach, parents... What to do...
Another problem
Coaches are pulling complete teams off and going to another Orgs, ect,ect....
The list just grows....Who's to blame??? The Girls The parents, The coaches, The Org.
JMHO...
