When what seems to be the case is the kids aren’t good enough to play at that level anyway - so might as well rage against the entire machine.

I'm in the mess now. The "Elite" division in Hoco level is simply the all-holdback division. The kids who are playing in the elite division are good kids who are have held back and are now older/bigger. The true "elite" talented kids (by age) are mostly playing on-class or playing up a grade in AAA ball.
