Nationals doesn’t appear to be sustainable.
The model is taxing travel wise. It’s insanely expensive. And the output is about a AAAA HoCo team.
The elite kids who used to play have just about all left it alone so what you have is a national team that is about as good as BLC.
It’s probably still a really good option for non hot bed kids though. Definitely fulfills a niche of getting those kids east to play in top tournaments. |
