Sacramento ASA is a part of Region 14 which encompasses Nevada, Hawaii and California. Region 14 has meetings through out the year in which each association sends representation and the procedures of how we run our JO program are discussed. A meeting was held in Irvine this weekend and I would like to share with you a change in Region 14 rules that will affect the 18u division (both Gold and “A&rdquo for the 2009 season.

For 2009 there will be a classification procedure put in place to limit the number of Gold teams in Region 14. Each association will submit their procedure for classifying their teams by the November Council Meeting.

This change in policy by Region 14 comes due to the over population of the Gold division. The Gold Program was designed to give the Elite teams a place to play each other. With every team wishing to be Gold, we have seen a watered down program and we have seen it has also hurt our 18u “A” program with a reduced number of participants. With the Gold qualifying tournaments trying to host an excess of 90+ teams in a two or three day tournament, we had to come up with a solution to help our Gold program return to the program it was designed to be.

WE SHOULD DO THE SAME!!!!
