The Loonies/FCA box semi-final was just sad to watch. I am not a big fan of the Loonies - but older kids beating up on younger kids is just not right.
Looneys Green is not the same skill level regardless of age. They did not belong in that semi as they were one of the bottom half teams that simply advanced due to ease of schedule which is an inherent flaw in combining A with AA in a league. Other teams were more skilled that did not advance including RR who beat Looneys Green the week before and others they lost to or who they never played who were valid AA. Unfortunate for the kids on green but their coach could have acknowledged that they did not belong playing AA teams in the semis to avoid the embarrassment but he did not. This time age had nothing to do with it. They are a single A who chose to play double A team and lost. Simple as that.
