So many points here, but the common theme is making $$$$$. So much of the game today is who is making money where. Everyone sees a opportunity to get in on the action. This is not just one sanctioning body but ALL of them. Before people get their new drawers in a bind, I understand it takes money to fund these events ($1000.00's at that) however with the marketing, planning, scheduling venues and teams all while getting the best teams to a event is HARD. I have no issue with a director making money to cover their time and efforts. The problem is this is becoming a BIG busi
1.The state directors were done w paying them more and more money.
2.PGF National wasn't making enough from these states.
3.Some state directors were using there status to help there teams get into events they shouldn't be at .
4.Regional director didn't like that these states were putting teams together that could go to PGF nats and compete and not be in there own talent pool for there teams.
5.Left Coast SB Mafia,Not liking getting beat by our Ohio Midwest ladies at PGF nats.lol
6.D1 coach's finding out they don't have to go to Cali to find talent.
7.Pure business decision
8 .Playing season too short (see 2.)
Some of these are way out there for sure,
but in the era of Fake News why not?
1.The state directors were done w paying them more and more money.
Wasn't going to cost directors more money
2.PGF National wasn't making enough from these states.
Ohio was 2nd in the nation in Future registrations Michigan 3rd (Illinois 1st)
3.Some state directors were using their status to help their teams get into events they shouldn't be at.
I do not believe to be true, teams will get into invites based on performance, they want the best.
4.Regional director didn't like that these states were putting teams together that could go to PGF nats and compete and not be in there own talent pool for there teams.
Who knows
5.Left Coast SB Mafia, Not liking getting beat by our Ohio Midwest ladies at PGF nats.lol
That's for sure lol
6.D1 coach's finding out they don't have to go to Cali to find talent.
I agree midwest is loaded with talent, and most of the kids they get from out west are not as good as the kids they have right here
7.Pure business decision
Does not apply since they did not pull out
8 .Playing season too short (see 2.)
