Anyone know how the new look 99 Blades are doing this year?

What is their record?

Only 4 age levels this year.(?) Only 4 teams per level.(?)

What happened to this tournament?

Nothing. The first couple of years is was one single level (95). So, it's grown.

Actually last year there were quite a few age groups and teams. its tanked this year.

New year - old tricks. Sounds like one of the Elite teams (not Orange) told the parents at the beginning of the year they wouldn't be bringing outstate kids in to play tournaments.
I was told by a credible source they're now inviting kids from Chicago and Dallas to play.

If this is true. How can anyone is their right mind justify doing this? Is winning really that important?

That is funny. Fast forward 5-10 years and the parents will be lining up for refunds. Wondering what happened? They were promised good things and a rich hockey future. The hockey gods weren't so nice.
I wonder if you could buy some sort of insurance for your kids hockey future?

You obviously know the answer to that..I'm sure trying out for and playing tier 1 would provide the insurance you're talking about..

K ... move on. Snap happy...

I heard the '03's have 4 teams: Blades, Miracle Gold, Hometown Hockey and Green Biscuits.

I assume this is a Blades/MG battle, but I don't know anything about HH or GB?

prediction 99' level goes to the host team

I say Velocity or Team Combat will give them a good game.

McCracken, Do you know how well the new look Blades are doing this year?

Isn't Team Combat just the Nats calling themselves Team Combat.

Green Biscuits?

Actually, only 3 levels: 98, 99, 03.

I just saw the schedule. There are no out of town teams, a few years ago it was the Blades and three other out of town teams. Are the out of town teams not coming because of the coast of travel.
