Every team has the kids who got on because a phone call was made. Happens in lax. Happens in life. Unfortunately. But it is true get on a travel earlier than later. Once a team is together a year or two it's much harder for a new player to get on. You either have to bump a player or go for a spot because a player left. Less and less turnover each year. Choose your club carefully and hopefully it will work out and the boys will stay together And build chemistry. It's clear those teams that have played together for a few years. Usually very very good.
