Communities with strong youth programs have strong JV & Varsity squads because they have so many kids to choose from. The top players in grades 9-12 are competing for jv and varsity spots and the bottom half of the rosters in these varsity programs are generally very strong players who would be top players on most other teams. They have subs who'd start on most other teams too.
