So the kids on the bottom of the bench can play JV, until they see time in a varsity game. Some teams do it. Mostly teams with really large varsity rosters, to get those bench kids some runs.

The problem is, it puts off and staggers the development. Those bottom-rung juniors generally are the ones who get jv minutes at the expense of the underclassmen on the jv team..

There simply aren’t enough game minutes for kids when a program has more than 70-80 kids in their lax program.

That’s nothing.

I’m sure BL, CH and LB all have over 120 kids in their programs.
