Really doubt express went in saying "lets play down" or 91 being a new team said "lets play up" but we are talking 3rd and 4th graders a debate this big is embarrasing about little kids. How is Legacy 2025 playing against younger 2026 teams acceptable? I know many of the parents on our team would rather be in the Yale tournament. Lets face it 91 should have a difficult time in those games but being challenged helps kids grow! Instead of playing 2nd graders


It's a shame, 91 should plan their tournaments better. They should divide up the age groups with more thought. Can't blame the teams for their poor groupings.
What do you mean? How would you like the teams to be divided up?
As for 91 playing up- better up then down. As long as the kids know they have some battles ahead of them- who cares what the score is. 91 has a lot of siblings on the other older teams that are there. I bet the families appreciate being able to go to one tourney as a family, rather than be split. The kids will be fine and they'll play and learn from the competition. Nothing wrong with that- is there? Always play up, not down!
