I just don't get how some are against these types of rules. When in the world would you find time, and the energy, to do both? From mid March to mid May we play 50 games, and that's varsity alone. Non-game days, we're practicing 2-3 hours. I love ball probably more than most, but I couldn't imagine running our HS schedule and a travel at the same time.
Depending on your location and quality of school some teams only play 16-20 games on Varsity. My DD's MS team had their 3rd game of the season rained out today and unsure if they will reschedule and with only an 11 game schedule to start we are down to 8 weekday games. This is just like little league. We play travel and start tournaments this weekend, the more games she can get to close the gap with the weather fortunate places the better.
