Wouldn't that make movement easier? In our area, JV and V play the same time and travel together while freshman teams have their own schedule. Freshman players don't make JV or V squads. They only play freshman ball unless in the rare instance a freshman is that good or maybe has an older brother on the varsity that might help move a good freshman up sooner.
Since JV and V play the same time at the same place, it's common that a couple of JV players are called over from the JV game by the varsity coach during a game. Sometimes, certain players would be sent over to the varsity game after the JV game ended to be possibly put in games. Also, non-senior varsity bench players could be sent over to the JV game to get in the game and grt some innings in.
My guess with this is that parents of varsity bench players weren't to thrilled when a JV player comes over and gets inserted into a game while the V player is still sitting.
Does your state allow this type of player movement between games or do rules prohibit it?
