I posted an enormous rant on Facebook about what happened to my son's team a few weeks ago. His team was 5-0 so they got screwed over by the new system that schedules the last 3 games after getting the results of the first 5.

We have 3 teams my son's age in our district. My son is on the second team.

Our first game in the last three was against Hunter's A team. Hunter. Are you familiar with Hunter?
X weight is 125 pounds. My son's team has 3 X men. Only one of them is over 130 pounds.
Do you know what a Hunter team looks like? They must have had 9 X Men and had at least 5 who were bigger than anyone on my son's coaching staff. Some of those kids must have weighed 200 pounds. They were 6th graders, but kids look different in the Hunter/Granger area.

My son's team didn't just lose. We had kids getting hurt on nearly every play. Our coach finally had to stop the game soon after the second half kickoff because it looked like child abuse.

I tried to talk to a Ute Conference rep during the game about the size disparity between the two teams and I was told that I was a poor loser. Members of my own district stepped in to tell me to just accept the loss and move on. They refused to acknowledge my real concern, the safety of the kids, and pretended that nothing mattered other than wins or losses. It was disheartening.

They have the weights of the kids. No one can play without being weighed.

Why not use those weights when choosing to pit an A team against a non A team? It was ridiculous.

My son is a tiny Z down. He was fine. Our poor non X kids who had to play on the line, however, had no where to hide. It's repulsive that the Ute Conference is okay with that

They care enough to put an X on a helmet, but don't care when one team is twice the size of the other.
