After hearing what Riverpark went through (time off from work, hotels, travel expenses, etc) I'm not sure I'd want to go past the section champiosnhip!
In A/AE we ahve 4 teams (48 player) and with three all star teams (mandatory 13 per if you want three coaches) then that means 39 players make all stars and 9 get "left out." I'm sure the commies will want to insist they all should make it but that's another story...
I'd like to see three teams.
Let players play up? I recall a year or so ago some parents didn't want that... then when their sons became 12s and realized a couple of 11s could really help the 12U team out they changed their mind. Interesting how perspectives change.
I think you decide which team has the best chance of winning (the 11s with the best kept down or the 12U with the best 11s) and go that route... So it will vary from year to year. If you have a weak group of 11s and a couple of the kids would give the 12U team a better chance of winning then you pull them up... but if the opposite is true you keep the 11s down. There's no sense in sending two weak teams.

Definately should be which ever team has the best chance. I'd say this year its the 11/12 yr old team. We'll need to pull up the best 11's to make the team go.
Now sit back and watch Hauser cry like a baby.

Typical moronic response Keith. You were the guy advocating for screwing your own manager's kid and the other 12s last year by gutting the the 11/12 year old team in favor of an 11 year old team in NS. That would have been a brilliant idea. Put away your petty jealousy son your way over your head.

MY POINT IS JUST LIKE YOURS, FIELD THE BEST TEAM POSSIBLE, AND THAT WAS NOT THE CASE LAST YEAR. THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY...END OF THAT SUBJECT.

WRONG - Not the end of the subject. You couldn't make a compelling argument last year and you're equally lost this year. Do you deny that you lobbied to eliminate the 12s last year? Of course, you only did it when Mike wasn't present. Boy with friends like . . .
Get over it Keith. You just demonstrate your immaturity by throwing stones when you don't get your way. I predicted you'd act like a baby and you didn't disappoint me. ROTF!

Not that I am involved but I agree with Crash, why would the leagues not put together the best team that have the chance to go the distance. If the 11's combined with the 12's will make the team alot stronger then why not go that route. If the 11's would have a better shot then leave them alone. From what I have seen on both sides of town this year in all the leagues, it will definitely benefit the leagues to bring up the few 11's that really stand out and make the 12's stronger. That way it will give Turlock it best chance at advancing as far as possible.
