All the boys that made the team can play, but the fact remains that they don't take the best kids overall. That is a fact and everybody knows this. The HC is going to rep the athletes from his school, his affiliated club, his friends kids etc because he knows the next HC is going to do the same. Like everything in life there is a political element to it and nothing is going to change that.

The coaches and everyone else there watching have eyes. They see and therefore know what is going on.

What matters most is that they get to see ALL of the boys play and compete. Being seen and getting your name out there is what matters.

If you're a big, strong, fast kid that can ball....you're going to be noticed and talked about.

The final team is not the end all be all.
