When did you try to move up, JV and Varsity?

The lower level games can keep you well on your toes because everything in the rule book and the case book is entirely possible except for maybe for dunking(then again I have seen an 8th grader dunk before),goaltending and BI. You will also find out how thick your skin is and start learning conflict resolution skills because you are usually dealing with the least experienced coaches,kids and fans.

I think you missed the point. The main issue is that working JH is not all of a sudden a training ground to work HS ball at any level. In many cases you might not even be exposed to certain HS rules like BI or GT that you might see at the HS level. For the record I have never seen a JH player consistently be above the rim. I have seen a kid dunk, but not very well or be able to go get balls on or above the rim, nor would I expect to when kids that age are not as under control. The bottom line is work it all and learn from each level until you gain the experience to make that jump.
