How is All Star Teams Selected?
All Head Coaches discuss all teams and all players and vote to determine the teams. No matter how good the rules, selection of All Star teams is highly subjective, and is sometimes the source of hard feelings. To accurately pick the best players in a league is impossible. One must only look to the major leagues, NFL etc. and the controversy there each year to see how difficult the process is. If your child feels he should have been selected and was not, please explain to him the difficulty of the job of selecting a team, and that perhaps next season his turn will come. This past season there were numerous different all-stars on each divisional teams than were on the previous years teams, so if you don't make it, don't get your chin down, because next year might be your year.
