Social media has made this issue an even bigger mine field. Freshman in the competitive travel ball circuit love to tweet things like "My new VARSITY uniform is sick!" They don't care if they won't play on V, or if reps on JV will help in the long run, they just want to be recognized as making varsity. Maybe they think it will help jumpstart their college recruiting too. Their parents get in on the act too, posting all that stuff on Facebook.
