Congratulations to all the kids that made one of the California elite AA teams. Now that tryouts are over, does anyone besides me find it it ridiculous that California has 21 - peewee AA teams? I'm going to guess that the 350+ players playing tier hockey are 25% of the overall crop of kids at peewee in all of California. I know many of these kids and their families have no choice but to play what their local club offers up. But are 21 teams what is best for elite hockey in California? CAHA made it easier for families to play tier, they scheduled less games and they pushed players down from AAA. Now they are faced with the problem of a very watered down tier division. Heck they probably got rid of the CAHA weekends because they couldn't schedule that many extra games. Just my two cents for a Monday morning.
