Out of a team of 12 you might have to let got 2 or 3 who just don't make the cut. So a club that has two teams should whittle down to about 18, take off a couple that go to Jets and you have 16 maybe 15 players who should be good enough. If you have to then drop half of them and look for players elsewhere, then the club should be looking at their JDL program and getting in better TDs and coaches.
Though parents should take note of this, if a club is happy to drop most of their players because they think someone better is coming along, then 1) the club can't be that good at developing players and 2) don't expect to be at the club long because it is clear they will happily drop you.
