And basically force kids to play in the at the High School level if they wanted to play, with the politics of this years scenario it will make navigating the waters a lot more difficult I for one can say I am trying to final a viable place for my boy to play this year without have to move out of state the KAKHSHL is not in our district so it is not an option for us

We will be in the same predicament next year and we're already worried about where we will end
Puck Yeah:
Why is it an issue to play HS rather than Midget A? I would say in general (no offense intended) if a player hasn't advanced beyond playing A by Midget they are probably not looking at scholarships, juniors or pro.
HS hockey fits the bill for building great memories and continuing to hang around the right crowd. Nothing bad about sporting a letterman's jacket in a hallway full of young ladies either. HS is you in CA but it has to crawl before it can walk. It is not going to come out of the gates with MN caliber hockey.

So the Kings just announced that they will indeed have a JV division this year with 6 teams. Add that to the new teams they are hoping to have join the Varsity division and you have a rapidly expanding program. Say what you want about the various number of A's associated with the any of the Midget divisions, but it would appear that wind will be blowing in a new direction in the coming years.

Is there a list of who is doing a JV?
Puck Yeah:
I have only heard WR and Valencia. I am not aware of the rest of the list.
