laxachusetts brought 2 teams to spring jam last year. green and white. this year they have 4 teams here, black, yellow,green and white. i have only seen black and green play.
Last year they mixed the teams. This year they will play at full strength. Black, yellow, green and white in that order.
When you say they mixed teams, they took the best players from 4 teams and made 2?
No, they didn't have 4 teams last spring. They only brought their top two; however, since there was no A and B brackets they mixed the teams to try to even them out so neither would be blown out. This year they are bringing all of their teams and keeping them at full stregnth
You mean their 6th graders will be on the top 2 teams and their 5th graders will be on their bottom two teams. They always have older kids playing for them. The parents on the sidelines admit to being up a grade. There is no way they are bringing 4 teams all in the 5th grade.
MA is right up there in leading the charge on using the ever present holdbacks - it seems that they, MD, PA, and NJ are in a competition on which can do this more to their advantage!
