Biggest impact will likely be on the tournament side. 3 step programs likely playing Robinson Sports and Aloha tourneys instead of TOTB or STEPS/YJ tourneys.

Wouldn't expect major changes this year. Biggest issue in my mind though is if M&D's schedule will change. That could be the one thing that could drive some families away. Already lots of older parents upset about not playing in G8. If they opt out of Live Love Lax or Lax For the Cure I could see some other families leave.

Also will be dependant on how long Robinson stays.
