I have to tell you, I think the concept of a 1st and 2nd grade travel team is pathetic. Our local rec league starts at 3rd grade and just emphasizes learning fundamentals for the first two years with the objective of kids just having fun.
What happens when a 1st grader commits a turnover? Do his parents scream at him and tell him he just blew his college scholarship? I don't even want to think about what happens if a kid misses a "game winning" shot.
