The challenge here is if you don’t participate and break every tampering rule the G claims to have and enforce, your kid is left on the outside.
As soon as Christmas is done, coaches start tampering, parents start shopping kids to other teams, skating at other teams practices starts.
Everyone knows this happens and no one does anything.
The G is now it’s own micro economy with everyone and their mother holding their hand out for payments.
Coaches holding ‘fun skates’, ‘birthday skates’ or whwatever else you call it is just funding the coaches. $75 for 1 AAA skate and there’s 40 kids on the ice and 8910 goalies… alarm bells. At 40 kids paying $75 the coaches are taking in $3000 for one skate. $400 is cost for ice roughly.
The other $3600 isn’t going to the team for tournaments or bags / tshirts and hats. IT’S ONLY PADDING COACHES POCKETS.
And if you participate you’re guilty of it’s continuation Of you don’t, your kid will never play.
If every parent who’s been scammed by this called the G with the next skates details and busted the coaches it would end. But so would your kids chance of ever playing AAA which so many parents covet for their undertalented little farts.
You’re all being duped. The GTHL is the most systematically corrupt economy in Canada. If they were politicians our gas would be $8.90/litre. Your groceries bill weekly would be $1800 and you wouldn’t stand for it.
So why tolerate it now? Are you that desperate? If the coach you’re paying hundreds of pre-team skate dollars to doesn’t come see your kid play? They’re taking you for a ride.
Stop getting sucked in.
Your kid isn’t benefiting and neither is your pocket book. Basically every coach in AAA knows you’ll buy your kids way onto the team no matter the price. It’s basically only worth it if you land them on a top 3 team.
Paying 7000-10000-15000 to play for the last place AAA is so stupid and the coaches just laugh at you.
