That's mainly true, though I think there are practices at the beginning of the season, then just games. The games I watched (Bantam age) were played at a pretty good skill level. Of course, most of those kids have been developed through regular hockey and a lot were good - they just didn't want the hitting.
One difference is that the skill range on each team is wider since there are far fewer teams. So I suppose there's a chance a lower end kid or a higher end kid would become frustrated with teammates.
