What we're really looking at is the system was in the northern US and Canada for Hockey now expanded everywhere. I knew people who were on travel hockey teams in junior high and high school for Hockey. Was like this on both sides of the border.

We’ve put up barriers that are too insurmountable for some kids. Very good players fall thru the cracks as a result. Very good players are not falling thru the cracks in countries that produce strong teams

Precisely it and now all sports have taken on this pattern. Unless you have parents rich enough to travel you ain't gonna be a sports star
