There are plenty of players out there who are better than some of the Barracuda kids. If they try out and are better, why shouldn't they be put on the Barracuda team instead of the Orange team?
I doubt the tryouts will include the Barracuda team. They may add one or two players if they are exceptional but,it's a long shot.
You guys spend way too much time worrying about this team. They are a good team but they are not unbeatable. There is too much competition on the Island from the other clubs. The clubs that lost players will reload and you will soon be talking about another squad at this age group.
We certainly agree here at BOTC that way too much time and effort is being dedicated to the Barracuda versus Orange debate. Provided that BOTH teams are able to get into the same showcase events moving forward (which should happen given the strength of the Express brand and the strength of the teams), there is absolutely nothing lost for the boys or this age group.
Now, whether some other clubs are losing top players from their "A" squads to man both the Barracuda and Orange teams in parallel is another subject entirely; one which is driven by both financial and club recognition (competition) issues.
