A big advantage to this, is the amount of ice time the kids get. They are on the ice every other shift so they get to play half of the game. I think it is a good idea, however there are a lot of parents who don't like it at all.

Yeah it is a hot topic in Sylvan as well.
As I posted earlier, I think it is a no brainer for Dynamite.
Novice, I think a split of cross ice 3 on 3 and full ice 5 on 5 games are a good idea.
