  1. Thank you. I kinda figured. I seen youth tournaments come and go for over 15 years. We may disagree on the number of games, but if done right, it's no different then the kids playing other sports or playing multiple games in the neighborhood. But that is just my thoughts.
  2. I can honestly say there are not. And most, if not all, of the tournaments and youth leagues have trainers on site to help prevent issues. So, while we need to intelligent, we also need not cast aspersions.
  3. Like others, I respect your sentiment, but I know Brownsburg has been sending teams for over a decade. I am curious, as you singled out one tournament, did you have kids participating in it and were unaware of the participation rules or are these type tournaments something completely new for you? Truly being serious. The "push" to keep the tournament to just a weekend is what many have done to limit travel times and cost. Many leagues around central Indiana participate this these various tournaments. As kids get a bit older, some even participate in State teams that travel the country playing 3-6 games a weekend. Just wanted to provide some additional perspective since my assumption is the OP was unaware of the magnitude of these. I don't see this changing any time soon, if not expanding for many. JMO.
  4. As always there are pros and cons to all things. Moving Football to the Spring will most likely eliminate your D1and D2 athletes that are Seniors. No D1 program is going to want their recruit to play then if they haven't already opted for Early enrollment.
  5. Glad that you felt we did a pretty good job in Brownsburg. I know many of us worked very hard to keep parents and coaches in there lanes. Not saying we were perfect at it but we did try our best. Since I worked with our officials I had some great insights and we tried to make sure we were all on same page. I got the feeling not every league had our same thought process.
