re: BRSA & Chris Mitchell.. What's the deal?

No idea of what the initial dispute is btw Mitchell and BRSA, but looks like BRSA has contributed over a million $ to build, upgrade and maintain these pitches. They take in $80-90 per kid each year to run the program(electricity, mowing fields, painting lines, net, etc.), plus more for all the "competitive" teams(D1, Select, Premier). Mitchell either got crossways with the Board or wanted to stack his own team, which he couldn't do within the BRSA system. So he forms his own "league", which affilaites w/LFC(no surprise there, LFC broke off of LYSA some years ago, prolly for similar reasons). Now he complains when he can't play games on fields BRSA maintains. Let him incur the expense of fields maintenence, lining, goals, nets, refs, etc. on the other pitches that BREC makes available to him.
