Excellent. A team that is separate but equal. A team for the SCTA kids because they aren’t on par with the ‘SCTA kids’.

Re: Scta 2010
This tournament has been around for years across multiple age groups. There are no dads running the show. Our league is so weak there shouldn’t be a surprise as to why all the players have left for the G and why so few are included on this groupGuest wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 8:38 amif you call a team SCTA shouldn’t it be made of kids who play in the loop?

Thin skinned? There are no tryouts. It’s just a hockey company putting together teams for a tournament on a weekend. It’s not that deep.
Let’s keep teaching our kids that hard work doesn’t pay off unless you have money.

Re: Scta 2010
These teams were picked months ago. They call you up - ask if you’re interested and then send you a link to sign up. I’m guessing some guy watched an early bird tourney, asked a few coaches he knows and then asks the guys that recruit kids for the agencies. It’s honestly not that big a deal. They are making money running spring tournaments. They hope to get some good kids - but there are no objectively best 13 year olds and they know it - so they don’t worry about it and cash cheques. If you can’t help your kid to have a little resilience about being left off one of these teams your kid is in for a tough ride in life. There is no fairness in hockey or life - as there is no omnipotent being that decides right from wrong. Buckle up and have some fun and don’t worry about this sht. throw the puck out there and get after it and have some smiles. It’s a game!Guest wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 10:52 amFind it hard to believe draftday picked this team.

Re: Scta 2010
Our team doesn’t deserve any kids on the draftday team, but seeing only one from first place team and zero from second place but two from third place. Smells fishy.

Not a big deal but also not a great look. Just call the team something else like best of the best of the best only better.
Re: Scta 2010
The company is called draft day. The biggest spring hockey company is called pro hockey development and they are most famous for 9 year old tournament. The newest kid on the block is best of best. The most popular spring division is “elite” talking about 10 year olds. And this is the name that is over the line. lol.Guest wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 2:00 pmOur team doesn’t deserve any kids on the draftday team, but seeing only one from first place team and zero from second place but two from third place.

And I don’t blame any of these companies. It’s decent business separating us from our money by stroking our egos about our average kids.
Re: Scta 2010
These spring tournaments are meaningless cash grabs. But if you have a team called SCTA then you should probably have more than 3 kids who play in the loop. I get that Elite in hockey means that you have more cash than the rest of us but I also know that if Draftday did a little bit of work they could put together a team of players from the loop that would compete.Guest wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 2:31 pmThe company is called draft day.

That day my friend will be when the “nobody” kids get drafted while the “elite” kids get left behind chasing junior b and C teams
