Why are there so many parent cuts? I’ve witnessed so many kids getting cut just because their parent questioned one coaching decision or spoke up about one concern they had. I know some parents can get out of control and their behaviour is poor all season but those are not the examples I’m referring to. The paid coaches getting $10000 or more from THE PARENTS should be open to amicably discussing concerns with the ones who are funding their business.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2024 5:47 amSmells like multiple parent cuts had to be made. What do you expect when 3/4 your team are A players playing AA. Not sure he hand picked players … more like what parents wanted to put there kid on a 2-28-2 hockey team? I sure wouldn’t unless I absolutely had no other choice and even at that i’d rather have my kid play A. Some AA organization have strict rules about decomitting players.

Obviously some bad blood here. End of the day some advice from a AAA parent… you have judge your own kids development and decide if they improved your kid or not. Interesting that a team of majority A players improved as much as they did to be SOMEWHAT competitive at the AA level. By the sounds of it this team should of have folded last season. Maybe the Reps, Majors or Titans should do the same if it helps them become competitive. I see lots of AA players at skates when I bring my own kid. Some good players especially on SYB TR & LF.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2024 3:07 pmWhy are there so many parent cuts?

Re: 2012 GTHL EAST AA
If you were a AAA player you would know that the top AA team doesn’t beat the bottom AAA team very often.
The jump is big. The NYK players played hard but didn’t get a kick better. The coaches spent the entire season chasing players and not developing their own. They went and got a bunch of individual small kids that won’t pass all
Season. They will get steam rolled by the top 6 teams who all brought in much better players.

Obviously, the Toronto Titans' parents agreed with you. From U10 AAA -U12 AAA their record is 1-89-4.Guest wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 7:58 am If you were a AAA player you would know that the top AA team doesn’t beat the bottom AAA team very often.

If my kid has been playing on this team since U10 then I'm friggin' delusional. at least $50K spent last 3 years and most likely will need $50K-$100K more for child psychology sessions, due to the damage I have caused to my child.
The kicker is, that they will have a team next year and no shortage of delusional parents waiting to sign up.

Same should be said about playing on the bottom AA teams… NT & EE looking set to become the Titans & Reps of AA.Guest wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 11:03 amObviously, the Toronto Titans' parents agreed with you.

So should those kids all go down to A? Of course not, they are way better than most A kids.
Re: 2012 GTHL EAST AA
2/3 of the team was playing A hockey in U11. The group earned 10 wins, those players didn’t get better ?Guest wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 7:58 am If you were a AAA player you would know that the top AA team doesn’t beat the bottom AAA team very often.

Re: 2012 GTHL EAST AA
Maybe those teams don’t really care about winning so let them be.
Everybody knows that politics play a huge role on teams. When a player is not strong a lot of the time the parent is involved with the team as something to offset the weakness. Sponsorships, manager, events. Whatever it may be. It’s like that at all levels of hockey.
