Bracket hasn't started yet... :LOL:

Haha! So true!

But I will say the general energy at the park this year is so different from years past. I feel like people are happy to be back doing what they love and maybe the past year has been a reminder of what's really important! (Of course I am bing a little Pollyanna-ish... ) but I do feel like the tone is different this year! The competition is amazing and the talent is awe-inspiring. We have seen some amazing plays and shows of grit and determination!

Ok..I think maybe you missed my point..
Perhaps. But that's ok.

I will say at this level, the parents are chill for the most part. I remember a few games that we upset better teams and no one flipped out. It's not 12U baby ball. The parents have been trained and when you have caliber of college coaches roaming the fields, everyone is on the best behavior.

Do notice most parents exhibit some sort of 'manners' with colleges attending.

Still the eccentric personalities seem to highlight themselves ...maybe thats just entertainment at that point. 🤡

There is some serious talent at 12u. Really. You can start to see who is going to play HS and college and who is probably not.

and when we remember that early recruitment actually happened in 14u...
Yes paying attention to 12u can see some who are on their way.

Well my team bowed out in the elite 8. Tough close loss to bb stith...couple calls didn't go our way and a bomb was the difference in the game. KS is intense as a coach, sooo many kids in that dugout compared to ours...lol.
