vp93 if u have them in select , u picked them,u dont have to put up with them  & u can always cut them,probably make your team better.  ;D. westend1-never was a problem with my kid making allstars even was a starter on a local team that made a trip to waco.  after 20yrs in L.L. i believe almost any kid can make allstars,THE HARD PART is winning district,sectionals,state or regionals.

like pngforever said most allstar teams are put together & playing select before the picks are made by coaches who put the xtra time & work in to give their allstar teams a better chance to compete with teams past district.if they aint doing this they wont be very good teams.  there is always a debate for the last 2 or 3 spots which come down between the weaker kids on chosen select team & the ones that dont play on the chosen select team. then u factor in the manager who made deals with other managers so his kid could make it,& board  members kids who feel they earned a spot for their kid by being on the board.nothing new here,that is any community little league sport with a board.im sure if mr. hendricks dad or mom would have been on the board or one of the liked managers he would have been a first ballot unanimous pick in any little league.play select leave little league for the complainers, cry babies & non believers of competition where the best players play.

the system in both nations & u-trip is inconsistant.some teams get moved up very quickly after 1 or 2 tourney wins & some teams win 4 or 5 tourneys & stay in the same division.some coaches sign up in the correct division to challenge their kids to make them better players for the future,but alot of coaches sign up a level lower than they should to get more wins for themselves,then brag about how good they are.this is called sandbagging & the sandbaggers are the ones bragging about how good their are.

congrats to Ruben for finally winning a SELECT Tourney after 3 years of playing down there. Maybe now he can get out of the kiddie pool and come up and play with the big boys  ;) [/quote] there are a few teams "loaded" with self proclaimned talent that for sum reason arent in the major division of their age division?

so much for lcm deciding anything. 27 pts. really?

how far did 2007 b.h. team go in the playoffs?

introductions are fine,but the teams that have the bench player on the court doing the cheerleader jumps,spin,twist,salute, patty cake hand slap routines with starters are taking it to far.

ozen by 3,last second half court shot off a spin dribble between 2 defenders at the buzzer to beat ned.

im sure the lamarque fans will have yet another excuse about lamarque fans/students/players/coaches not being able to control anger problems at yet another school/athletic event.

nederlands little dribblers program has helped tremendously the last 10 yrs. in the success of nederland jr. high & high school basketball.alot of the guys that coach or coached nederland L.D. are legit basketball guys who have the same philosophy/passion coach english does about basketball & it shows in 8u games up to varsity games.

sounds like bobby mcgee thinks lamar needs a new coaching staff already?

its easy to coach from the stands & a computer.im sure wos coaches told their players every thing suggested on this topic to stop ned.,but sometimes 15\18 yr. olds dont follow the  plans correctly or the other team just makes a play to win.wos player defended the shot well without fouling,ned. just got the lucky bounce.good game.

stump moves on because  of better facilities,better pay,better school district,better community,just as many if not more athletes to chose from.99% of the coaches in s.e. tx. would take the atascocita job.good luck mr. stump

if this is true will he get to play at memorial?

good move, i like the l.l. rulebook 9-12 can tryout for major based on skill level,gives parents a choice to play up,challenge the younger kid by competing with the older kids which 9 times out of 10 makes player & the league stronger.i think nederland has done it that way the last few years & been successful.

so all 10s & 11s will play major division,unless request to play down?

wow!those 9 hon. mention guys would be on my 1st team

if FONTENOT & BROWN CAN COME BACK & be EFFECTIVE from their football injuries.raines in the outfield?come on man,hes related to the coach he will be at s.s. pitch or 3rd. lol

3 ned. starters a combined 3 pts. ouch!

nederland has 1 legit ball handler to break pressure or penetrate a defense for scoring chances,but hes in 5th or 6th grade lol.silsbee would have destroyed nederland with their pressure.good game west brook,thats why u play the game!

NOISE BY NED.FANS  IS NOT THE PROBLEM WITH THE OFFENSE GETTING THE PLAY OFF EFFECTIVELY.WHO ARE U TO TELL THE NEDERLAND FANS WHEN OR HOW TO MAKE NOISE??

COACHES GET PRAISED& GLORIFIED WHEN THERE SUCCESSFUL,WHY CANT COACHES BE CRITISIZED WHEN THERE BAD?NEWSPAPERS & NEWS SHOULD REPORT BOTH SIDES  GOOD OR BAD.THIS AINT CHINA YET
