Our town split 2nd graders into an A and B team last spring. Yes, 2nd graders. Guess how well that worked out? Most of the B team quit. Some of the A team players were miserable trying to keep up with the higher tier A team kids playing in the A bracket. So it's likely that we eliminated at minimum ten to twelve 7 year olds from playing a sport. Brilliant. Did I mention the PAL (dad) head coach and genius engineer or this plan doesn't believe in club lacrosse? He says he can't afford it on his teacher's salary. Same genius who had his kid in tears at practice. He's the kind of winner I want to be my kid's role model.
