Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 2111274, member: 199"] Agree completely about 'fond memories of bygone days' syndrome, but I think there are major changes in all sports that are more significant than just that nostalgia, and I think the involvement specifically of the helicopter parents has exploded in society. Specific to WCBB and women's sports in general, that change has been monumental - in my childhood there weren't any women's sports in general and no professional options. They were still playing the 6 player, limited dribbles, offense/defense brand of women's basketball in a lot of places around the country until 1971. And it wasn't until title IX that anyone said women had a right to plays sports. [/QUOTE]
