U12 Boys in MAPLE

It looks like SF Vikings and Blackwatch will probably move into the Blue division in the Spring , and 4 teams will drop. Any picks on who they will be?

The safe bet would be with the current bottom four, but after this week's action no bet is safe!

Parity seems to be the name of the game in this division. Both prognosticators went 2/5, so there was a bit of improvement in that department. It will be fun to see what trends emerge after Columbus Day!

Anyone know where these teams are headed for Columbus Day Weekend?

If you look at CFC's tournament website, it seems Scorpions are having its U10, 11 and 12 Elite teams play in the U11, 12 and 13 divisions.

It also looks like all of Galway and all of Scorpions are heading to the same tournament. Is this the start of merger between the two???

Anyone know where these teams are headed for Columbus Day Weekend?

It looks like the Blue division was well represented in tournaments over the weekend. Galway Rovers went 2-1 at CFC, losing only to tournament champion CFC. The Scorpions played U13 at the same tournament and also performed respectably (1-1-1). Bayside won the Premier division title at Nashua World Cup and Western United R won a lower division bracket at YMS in PA.

This is not the usual W/L for the Blazers. Either the coach is playing too many of the bench players or they have the wrong mix of kids on the team. Given that FO is the coach, it isn't the former, so it must be the latter. I suspect that there will be some heavy recruitment so that the Spring team will look very different. If the losing record keeps up (or if they don't win the famed Irwin Cup) about 1/3 of the team will be replaced.
