E9 is not the Ehf elite however the E9 can and does develop players. Having kids play in both leagues, I think if the e9 and ehf elite played each other throughout the year, you would find the difference in the top players would be very close. Overall I think FED teams would win most of the games but the upper midlevel and top players would be closer in skill than you would expect.
Fact remains a lower level sub 500 E9 team was able to hang with the top two ehf teams. So at least at the 04 level there isn't much difference between leagues. Would be great if there was more cross over games but there aren't

Why would it be "great?" For whom?
No dog in this silly, endless chest-pounding, my kid played in both, but it sounds to me it would be "great" for parents that are insecure about the league they chose for their kids.

Just stop. It's one tournament in September. Let things play out. More data points coming this weekend with Boston Breakout. You sound foolish harping on one team's performance over four games early in the season. And my kid is in E9, so I'm kind of on your side, but let's pump the brakes a little.

Not true, look at scores...BA04, a middle of pack e9 team, was able to play with mid to bottom EHF teams in BJT and NEF...but got smoked by IHC
Boston Breakout finally giving us the match-ups we want this coming Saturday in the 06 division.
IHC v. Seacoast Spartans
Boston Jr. Eagles v. Boston Advantage
My $$ on the 2 E9 teams.
Uh-oh...... Didn't quite happen the way you expected it to this past weekend. Let me guess? They were missing their best players? Or was it food poisoning from Koonloon?
