Where would you fast track your best 16-17 year old kids if not in Youth League? Most Associations would not be playing them in their men's Big V teams because these teams will already have a full roster.
Taking away YL would reduce the flexibility for development for the best teenage kids out there, it isn't another version of under 20's IMO, not even close from what I have seen...
@Dr ABC, I would be interested to know what the talk is and why they see the Big V as a good fit for their program?
That division are we looking at?
Is it only the mens program, or women as well?
Having seen their men play the Vic Country 18 boys earlier this year, their professionalism and court manner left a lot to be desired, so unless they have improved in certain areas I would not consider them a good fit personally...
