Most clubs i was around, the teams chose where they played and the doc may have some influence but they did not dictate where they went b/c the parent's are paying for it.

I have seen club teams go to the same tourneys and dominate but never get better; but they can say we won this and that but they were not strong tourneys; then i think the DOC should step in and talk to the teams/players about participating in other tourneys.
