I'm not sure that it is such a bad rule. I think it keeps a lot of players from being moved around, and therefore opportunities for more players to gain state cup experience. The players work too hard all season, to have someone come in and replace them at state cup.
Our programs in SC should balance player development and winning games. Teach them how the older ones play, and not take shortcuts just to win games. For the younger players, there will be plenty time to win.
