It was a district by district choice... but the Snake Drafts from last year made a large number of parents pull their kids from the sport.
B team from district #1 would go up against B team from district #2... District #2 did a snake draft and took the majority of A team kids.. District #2 B team ends up winning every game 75 - 0. The A team from District #2 got crushed by every other A team that didn't do a snake draft.
Lots of smaller kids ended up getting hurt and it made parents mad.
