I played Varsity Hockey my sophomore year of highschool-I was the only sophomore (I was the youngest) and we won our league. Since I was the youngest one on my team playing against older and bigger players it was still good experience.
Before playing highschool hockey I played travel hockey. My highschool experience was less than my travel hockey experience (this is typical in my area). the High school level in my area has less practices, less skill, less commitment, less coaching. Highschool is no cut-travel is extensive cuts.
Next year, for my Jr. year of highschool I am considering switching back to travel hockey-which is not Highschool-so no Varsity letter. Travel hockey in our area is considered far more intense and elite than highschool hockey. Even though my sports will be more demanding, physical, intense-no Varsity letter. However, will not getting that Varsity letter my Jr. year cause me a problem with a nomination/appointment?
(btw just to clarify-im not anticipating playing D1 Hockey at West Point)
