I am referring to the poll taken at the coaches meeting to do away with the parade of champions (that every kid in the building that has been to the classic and made the parade was looking forward too). This is a kids sport and I understand wanting to change the format and get out sooner but you do not do it the day of when all the kids are expecting it. To poll the coaches and say that they are the reason the tournament is there is bull, the tournament is there because of the kids, and it is supposed to be for the kids.

Before i get prosecuted i know how many coaches are giving their time for the sport for free, My point is we all expected the parade and were already in for that on our schedules today, if you want to make that change have some class and put it on your flier for next year. just my opinion
