After watching my kids (boys and girls) play at all levels I have come to the realziation that the squirt level is the worst! The absolute worst! Especially if you have alot of first time hockey parents coming through the system.
Hockey aspirations and expecations are so high at the squirt level and are often abruptly extinguished during cut down days. Look, it's human nature. I don't know anyone who likes to have their baby called ugly. Especially SECOND year squirt parents. When their little player gets cut to B's during their 2nd year of squirts, the parents often mistakenly interpret that as a hockey death from which there is no return. When in fact, it's just the beginning.

I wouldn't know what to look up.Faceguard79 wrote:Why don't you go look it up and get back to us. Did you get the point? It's much more important to make sure your child is having fun and learning how to be A PART OF A TEAM than which team they are on. Can we agree on that?
I have 4 sons who play hockey, 2 in high school and 2 in college, one in division I. Guess what Squirt team he was on? C. Yep, C.
I'm not sure if I get your point. If your point is that things change from Squirts to Bantams and beyond then it matches my experience.
Be kind. Rewind.
