4 Players of the 03 Kings went to SSM. 1 Goalie,2 Def, 1 Forward. Its also not cheap. So you have to also consider who can afford the program as well. The 5th player- Def went to Delta Hockey Academy in British Columbia. They were ranked 2nd in Canada for Bantam Majors last season. SSM was forth in the USA According to My Hockey Rankings.
What you should be looking at is what makes these kids and team so different and how they climbed to this level in Southern California to be in the top players & team in North America
. This 03 team started just like any other year for the Kings in the beginning. ( again am I wrong)
I am sure this team travels alot so expenses are high (unless they have a sponsor). But they have been strong since the Brick year it seems. This thou is the first year that so many moved on ( I think) others know more then me
. But this also helps others who have joined the program and will get better as well. One question- Why dont they seem to have issues like other programs. I would think they have their key players , shorten benches, etc. But it works, so if it works them why cant other programs ( age groups, in other areas) create this, so it works for them.
If anyone knows more about this , it would be interesting to hear. How is Crashes team so a mess and this one is not.
or is it the parents listen to the coaches and just pay the bill
