Bear, I was stating the forum rules, but your discussion is valid. If a 17 yo is playing an open age group sport, then you would expect them to be talking about like they were an adult. If Creeeky was 17 (for argument's sake) and signed on with the Sixers then he should be talked about like Gibbo (for example)

I think the consensus would be that juniors should be protected. They are still developing in maturity and adverse experiences may impact them more greatly than a senior person.

Perhaps as a forum rule, discussions on specific junior performances should be seen as OK if they are limited to fact, or not construed as being vindictive. Perhaps if they are representing a state at national level that might be seen as being OK.

189, It's very rare for parents or JDOs/CDs to get on this forum to talk up their offspring / protege.

We don't usually specifically talk about juniors on this forum.
