Hmm, that Division arrangment is a bit different from ours which progresses from C to B to A. Oh, wait a minute, I'm talking Travel League classifications. I forgot your daughter's age group.



It's funny but, that brings back a story - my daughter's Travel team (first year of U-12) was a "nervous" joy. We very rarely had subs and sometimes did not even have 11 players. Many times, we played 1 down, sometimes 2 down and the other teams RARELY reciprocated. We used to call them the "No Subs"!



Anyway, that year they went UNDEFEATED and won the end of (Fall) Season tournament. Their reward? They were bumped UP to Division "A" the following spring! They finished the Spring season 4-3-1 -- not bad considering we still had to call them the "No Subs" and this was against better teams!

Oh, the joy!!
