I know what you are saying. I spoke with one of the Paintsville Coaches the other day and he said that they didn't have 140 kids all together in T-Ball, Coach Pitch and 9 thru 12s. BUT, they still managed to put 13 on their Rosters. So it makes sense to me to not have a 11 yr old team. Put together a strong 9/10 and a 11/12 with 12 to 13 kids. Yes it is for the kids. So why have a team with 3 roster spots open and leave out three kids, if it is for the kids? That just makes it look the opposite. I have watched all the games of the Touney and Paintsville and Beaver Creek each had 13 kids and got them all in. Paintsville even got all theirs in during two 4 inning mercy games when they didn't even have too. Now that appears to be for the kids and now 13 kids get the memory of a State Tourney and not just 10.:thumpsup: That's just My opinion though.
I can understand why that is a sore spot with anybody.

Good Luck to Both Teams in the Tourney. Can't wait to watch.:1:

Thats my opinion also!!! I know its all for the kids!! I know that... BUT THIS part of it is All Stars. Every coach will be bringing the best team they can and try to go as far as they can!! Dont get me wrong, the players we have are great and capable and deserving! Heck one of thems mine, I'm not putting them down, their doing GREAT!!! but there could have been a few more kids riding this win with us and Helping us on through and there was at least one who absolutely Deserved and should have got to experience this District win!! I'm going to zip my lip now LOL

I do want to say Congrats to the 9/10's and to the 10/11's!! They did their best and played hard. All these kids are :1:
