I agree. Unfortunately this is often the nature of CYO and other HS age rec league players. Many of these kids don't have the skills or self discipline to make their regular HS teams, and often have a chip on their shoulder or feel they have something to prove. It takes a strong coach to keep them pointed the right direction......something not very common at this level.
