Ok I will have to bent a little and agree with u... This may especially be true for more urban areas where football and basketball tend to be THE sports to master... I dont think that keeping 6U our the state tournament series will solve these burn out problems alone... but every year 6U is voted on and voted down... FOR YEARS THIS TREND CONTINUES... so lets deal with the problems with the issues of why it keep gettin voted down... like burn out, pressure, and the few parents and coaches who live through their kids and atheletes. HONESTLY only when we can handle the prospective of a 6U championship will be be able to then be able to approve this age group into the state tournament series...

MY OPINION

We should let this topic go.. spend our energy on other things like improving the participating in freetyle etc... Someone mentioned a triple crown for KS (folkstyle, freestyle, and greco) I kinda like that anything to promote more kids to participate (the BIG PICTURE!!!)
