Most of the kids had to know the players were too old and that makes them complicit. I don't feel sorry for any of them.

I'm not sure I understand what they are trying to explain...Are you telling me there are tournaments that do graduation year teams vs. birth year teams? I thought almost all tournaments were strictly birth year? And if that's the case, what's stopping anyone from holding their kid back a year or two?

If this coach thought he could get away with this, how many other times did he succeed in the past???? It's obvious that this was premeditated and lots of planning went into this scheme to make this happen.
But if it wasn't for those meddling kids, he could have gotten away with it!

A representative from Triple Crown Sports responded: "We are not going to say much more than what the (press) release offered, other than we followed our normal protest protocols during the game and concluded that the player was legal based on the information that was presented to us at the time."
"It was after that game when the coach called us and confessed what they had done. We then made our decision."
I'm talking about the 14u teams, etc. The other teams in the org that had nothing to do with it.
From what I can gather, the only players that have been banned are the ineligible players and that's only with TCS (so far). The coaches of the specific team have been banned as well. All the teams in the org have been banned too, but, the players and those coaches of the other teams haven't been banned so they can join another organization for the next year.
Don't hold me to that, but that's my interpretation of the banning of the entire org.
