How many Travel teams does CYA have at each age/gender level?
Several years ago the CYA basketball board decided that the first priority of the CYA Travel basketball program would be to maximize the number of players participating at the Travel level so as to best prepare these kids to play high school basketball. Thus, CYA strives to field the FCYBL-allowed maximum number of teams at each age level (3) if sufficient talent exists for competitive teams. Fielding 3 teams rather than just one or even two means that more players participate but the overall talent level of each team is somewhat reduced, making it somewhat more difficult for CYA to win league championships.
