Count me out for spring hockey unless the kid has zero interest in any of the available summer sports.
It is a parent thing more so then a kid committing themselves, the parents carry themselves a certain way when their kid, who has never played over A in minor hockey, is playing "AAA" spring hockey

Spring hockey is a neccessary evil of developing kids, be it turing good players into great players or turning poor players into medieocre players, over a few years the kids who play year round will be excelling, in hockey over those who don't play between April and August, I know there will always be exceptions.
