I could see kids playing with the better competition which would make them better players by playing with the kids from Long Island cause I've seen my sons play get much better. I just think we should be giving kids that are on the bubble a chance to better their skills that live hear on Long Island. Is this common for Long Island or is it just a select few teams that have kids from out of state. Also I would like to say to these kids from Long Island thanks for taking my son in. Talent is really the best I've ever seen.
