Agree. This happened at the PHA Icemen team my son was on. None of the kids enjoyed the season whatsoever, it was truly sad. The coach did nothing to help bring these kids together and actually contributed to the division. Was a lot of money and travel to play "AAA" when you actually could barely beat any of the AAA teams and lost to the better AA teams. Hard lessoned learned. Definitely the PHA program is NOT worth the money. If you can find a better AA program around, like NP or Armstrong NB program your pocket and kid will be much happier.
People are still drinking their kool-aid. Somehow they found enough AAA talent to not only field one U16 team but they are fielding two. I guess people do not do research to see how awful that U15 team was last year, traveling the country to get beat by mediocre AA teams....

Perhaps because the Yeti are there?
At this point, you have to know what you are in for at Icemen. There is lots of info out there and you only need to ask someone with older players. I can't even feel bad for people playing there any more. Have fun storming the castle.
Somehow this organization found enough qualified AAA players in the area to not only field one U16 team but are fielding two. Amazing.......

Desperate times call for desperate measures. 05 birth year team are losing kids left and right for next season. Why would you stay when you almost finished dead last in tier 1 rankings and not just go and play pahl???

'Low level' AAA' grow the game?

I would use the word legit very loosely. The teams they played may have been registered aaa but are far from aaa caliber teams. Out of 103 ranked teams in U15 tier 1 they were 93. I think this paints the picture.
