And remember…and this goes both ways…if your BLC kid comes to NL, you are putting on an NL jersey. Same if your NL kid goes to BLC. Accept and be respectful. Realize a culture is in place and you can make the next 12 months great and fun or be a BadPerson and bring your toxicity before the first practice.
Fact is none of you, including the coaches, know who’s on the team until after tryouts. Coaches will make picks and owners will have to agree and sign off. It will be based on merit. Yeah, there are a bunch of shoe-ins but that’s par for the course.
Just relax and zip it and let the ELEVEN YEAR OLDS have their time to prove themselves without you making everyone stressed and miserable. Jesus…

Mom, please! Coaches don’t know who they’re picking? Merit based? Hahaha! Good luck!
