Not sure what schol district you are talking about but the girls on my daughter's yellow jacket team play and START for Mt. Sinai, Smithtown, ESM, Middle Country, Calhoun, Cold Spring Harbor, etc. Some districts like Sayville, Garden City, Manhasset etc wont bring up girls in 7th or 8th grade so that doesnt happen.

I agree with you totally, I wouldn't have my girl brought up if she was going to sit. Thats why you communicate with the coach first so you know their expectations.
