My understanding as a parent of a TG 2017 player is that the Purple team is new and yes, a handful of Black players will be moved to purple as there were a few very talented new players at the tryout who will be selected for Black. The Purple team should be strong as well, there were no weak players last year. Bottom line- keep your daughters involved in sports year round as they are approaching a very impressionable age. Good luck to all of the girls!
