If the Bears field 2 Bantam AA teams, that would be a change from their approach in years past for the '04 & '05 age groups. They typically have had a Bantam AA that is mostly 2nd year, and a Bantam A hybrid team. It would be a real change of direction for those birth years, although they obviously now have the credibility of a banner.
With that said, so did Wada Wave the year prior, and there was still some significant changes to that roster this year. The Bears also have 2 young women on D, both major contributors to the team this season. At Bantam it's not unusual for the Lady Ducks or Lions AAA to pick off many of the top PW girls who are moving to Bantam.
The team will be different next season, but exactly how different is anyone's guess. There also seems to be a shortage of Tier experienced '04 & '05 goalies in the valley. Bears had an 07 at PW AA and an 06 at A. That's not very helpful for Bantam prospects next season. Last season they had one goalie (an '04') who literally had to play through the last CAHA weekend and playdowns nursing a groin pull. Tier teams with 1 goalie are really living dangerously.
