When I was 9 there was no such thing as a 9-10 league, there were 9-12 leagues and if you were a very good 9 or 10 year old you make the team and get to practice for a couple years with the older guys till you paid your dues. If you were not good enough, you go home.

Now there are competitive 9-10 year olds becuase they are playing, with kids their own age, and have been for several years. And there are Fall leagues so they play some more. And there are very competitive and intense 9-10 year old tournaments. Even 20 years ago, when my kids were that age the tournaments they played in were intense. I remember them well and I feel sure the players do too, and I am sure the players remember nothing about how the ice cream tasted, because there was none to be tasted after games.

Some here are shooting off mouth about things they know nothing about.
