With the most recent Entry Draft behind us, there's a question I've had in the back of my mind for several years. It has been reported that some players have signed " Letters of Intent" with various NCAA schools, or with the US NDT program. Actually, the question is two-fold: Exactly what legal standing has a " Letter of Intent". In these instances, these "Letters" would be signed by players 15 or 16 years of age. It's always been my understanding that "minors" , or those who have not yet reached the age of majority can not sign a legally binding document. If I'm mistaken, and I very well might be, could someone explain with some clarity, just how much legal sway these letters have ? When such declarations are made, how much "weight" should a potential drafting team attach to the situation ?
