The differences between Select and Premier are less severe than between Rec and Select. There is typically especially if you compare a Select "A" team to a Premier "A" team an obvious difference in skill set, quality and speed of play and quality of competition. In addition:. Select is less time commitment than Premier. Select usually plays months per year while Premier usually demands year-round play. Premier has paid full-time professional coaches.
