Are far smaller than any other big name organization that franchises teams all across the country. The only other high level organization that’s smaller is the chill. The bandits have roughly 30 players at each age level …60 per age group if you think of it in 2 yr spans…about half of which are not even from the Chicago area. Get over yourself the players that play for the bandits wouldn’t play for your little home town b team even if Bill closed up shop…they’d play for Gerry or Brian green or out of state teams like the real thunderbolts.
