How can you post this type of information when rosters are frozen from regionals for USARS and AAU Juniors.

As I understand you can only add 3 elite players to your qualified team after regionals, and none in the other divisions.

Please let me know if I'm missing something.

Thanks

You are not missing anything.

And TORHS is rigged?
State Wars would certainly put an end to this sort of thing now wouldn't it?

Yes, it would.

And all we at GEAR are trying to do is find kids who WANT TO PLAY a place to do so. All of the players who end up rostered for USA Championships and/or JO's will have played with us or will have been rostered at a regional.

With the allowed exception of 3 players per team at the Elite level of those 2 tournaments, and the open divisions of 20u, and Womens/Girls.

Playhard had a legitimate question, and the answer is the players who respond will be told where they can go to qualify with a GEAR team, if they have not already, before USARS and then before JO's.
