I posted the article in response to National Competitions being considered "word play". The "parent" blogger of this article (from what I gather from her editorial) writes that she wants to see a true legitimate path to a National Championship (state, regional, national to a world championship). In short, she does not agree with "wordplay" nor with the current standards in place for sport recognition. In her opinion, it does not make sense to anything but the $. As a parent she has every right to comment on safety standards/regulation (although not applicable to this thread). I think everyone knows that the majority of Allstar coaches are properly trained and teach progression. The highly skilled teams across the country are a testimony to that success. I, for one did not realize, that there is no requirements to coach (as stated in your post). No required background checks at least? Finally, I am thrilled that JamBrands is creating a prestigious event which has the potential to grow the sport.
