What would your kid accomplish today if we had a strict birth year bracket system? Would he be better, or seem better? Who would really win, the kid, or the helicopter parent? Get to cheer a little louder, and little longer while they are little kids, then HS hits, and poof, they either have it or they don't. Now, how to you stack the deck in your advantage to get better, other than great coaching? A) Play against the best kids possible as a youth? or B) make sure some of the best kids have to go away because mommy and daddy don't like the bracket system?
