Elite programs for juniors in any sport more often than not funds wage claims for the senior teams - that otherwise would not be financially supported by their own revenues and sponsorship.
The wages of players in the senior team are a function of the gullibility of parents with juniors in Elite programs.
I'd like to think it's not the case - But it probably is close enough to the mark.
With respect to the players as long as they don't lose sleep over extorting juniors I don't see a problem with it.
