They took the best on age players from several clubs that didn’t have enough on age players to qualify on their own. The tournament allowed this for some reason. If the World Series doesn’t enforce their own rules then this will continue to happen, and in my opinion, it totally goes against the spirit of the tournament regardless of any rules that are In place.

BBL does the same. Has a separate tryout for their WS team.
