My nephew has only ever played rec league ball and made his HS team as a 9th grader. Meanwhile some of his peers who played travel ball are burnt out and didnt even try out.
Exactly how it played out at my high school. More rec players than travel players made the 9th grade team in tryouts which created a lot of angry dads. I think this is why the coach tried to implement the travel ball only rule because of the blowback from cutting kids whose parents had them playing travel ball

That right there is why I quit coaching. I had a 5'2" kid whose dad was his AAU coach try to tell me he should be my starting shooting guard over my 5'10" kid who could play, but didn't have a dad for an AAU coach. I let his kid get torn apart in one of early season games to prove a point. Naturally, he got pissed and wanted to argue with me in front of a gym full of people. I had to ban him from our gym.
