So I'm checking around the websites today and and I see that there is a Select 14 festival.<br><br>I ask a couple of people about this and I'm told that minnesota hockey refuses to participate, will not send MN kids to participate in this festival.<br><br>What gives??<br><br>Anyone got any info on this?? <p></p><i></i>

I think it is a good idea for MN, and all states really, to wait till the kids are 15 to send them to this thing. At least then they are in High School. <br><br>14 is a little too young, these kids should still be spending their summer swimming and playing other sports, and if they really want... working on their individual skills like skating and shooting... Wait until the kids are in 9th or 10th grade to start them in all the selects stuff. <br><br>MN is the best anyways why not wait till they are 15 to prove it.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

There are other select teams that play in tournaments in minnesota so I do not know what the difference would be. They play in canada, and in the end of July the have a tournament in the cities. <p></p><i></i>
