Not sure about those Turtles, but MOST clubs tell their players that school events always come first, we are taking summer people how does that interfere with school, and as far as middle school, I agree that a player should play for their school team, support the school, that same player should also play for their school team throughout high school......a well rounded individual/player can learn something from every coach he or she playes for, but those coaches also have to respect a players decision to advance their skills if that is what they want, and not hold being on a club team during the summer against them when it comes to playing time in the spring!
