Why do teams field A skaters for a b level tournament
There’s a major B level tournament happening right now, and all everyone can talk about is how the majority of teams here are fielding all A or mostly A rosters. The team that won last year is the worst offender and will probably win again this year. Why do teams do this (just to win?) and how can we regulate? I’m not talking about A level skaters who are skating down for the entire season because they want a break/to have fun. I’m talking about teams with skaters who have dedicated A/B rosters all year long and then replace their B skaters at a B tournament with their A skaters just to get the W. My team is only fielding B skaters and are actually down players and really struggling and I feel like getting penalized just for following the rules. Is it insane to ask organizers to regulate a little more?
