How do the 2018 top guns teams measure up to yellow jackets in 2018? There are 3 teams this year. I think there were 2 last year.


It is hard to compare because the two clubs seem to avoid each other at the summer tournaments. The A teams did play each other once last summer to a tie that got called due to weather in the 2nd half. I would think the YJs have an advantage on the lower teams since TG tryouts are first, kids who don't make the A team TG turn down lower teams only to make the lower team on YJ and have a choice, accept it or not play the next summer. I see the early tryout of TGs a advantage to the A team TG and the late tryout an advantage to YJ B, C. teams.

The biggest advantage YJ have over TG is they give the girls an opportunity to play at a younger age (Hornets). The girls play in 2nd and 3rd grade make their friends there and go on to play for the YJ. TG does not have a program like that in place. YJ having the last tryout is also a great strategy.
