sapdad, hopefully they do stay together, from what I understand the majority of the team are from the Rosebuds JDL programe, so you would assume a fair investment has already been made by the club. Some may look for the shiny lights of DIV1, but honestly if the kids are having fun hopefully the parents can steer them away, plenty of stories of kids leaving only to be disapointed the next year.
