My son plays on a B team and wins a lot of Championships. Why doesn't the coach move and play in an A division for just one tourney? Is it his ego? Does he need another T-Shirt. The A team in our club plays in all the A tournaments. They don't ever win the championships but they compete against better competition. As a former player I know that is the only way to improve. I don't have any visions of grandeur my son belongs on the B-Team but I hear him an his teammates talk about how they are better than the A-Team because the A Team never wins the championship. Then I have to knock him down a peg but am I wrong for doing that?

LOL. We've been kick LI's butt for years, and that's not gonna change.

What B team is that dominant that win a lot of championships? I haven’t seen one team dominate the B division.

How does this clubs A team do in tournaments is the question.
If they don't fare well why would the B team think they would.
Secondly,A teams don't enjoy beating up on weaker teams, it does neither team any good

What club is this?

Would guess Outlaws

Igloo Frostbite is by far the best of the B teams and the others shouldn’t be in A brackets cause they would get destroyed.

Hats off the schedule guru at JC17 this weekend. O'Reilly is the same coach and they schedule his teams around the same time at 3 different fields. Lol. Can't make this up.

Do the Outlaws have this issue as well? I was thinking of having him tryout for them.

Both outlaws teams are similar. Won’t beat the top 5 or 6 teams, but can compete with everyone after that.

that's not true at all.

You can't always blame the coach. They send both team to the same tournaments and I don't think the coach has control of the schedule. I know that coach was moved up to the A team but refused because he was not allowed to choose the players he wanted. The organization wanted to control the players he picked.

Who won this weekend at Stony Brook

Or Igloo
Or TB

Who won this weekend at Stony Brook

Outlaws are better then both these teams. TB is middle of the B pack

TB is better than IGLOO. OUTLAWS not even in the mix

Hawks beat 91 NY in the Final 7-1.

Props to the IGLOO B Team playing in an A division at the JC17. Here is a coach that actually gets it. Play better competition to improve or stay in the B Level and win another T-shirt.

Not exactly a loaded A bracket though outside of TB.

Not the point. The point is they put them up to a challenge when they could have played in the B division and ran away with it. The B Division teams were all horrendous.

Is ICON 2024 team any good?

Everyone is a B team compared to Madlax 2024
