Be a discerning consumer. As an example, the current HC of Utah and former assistant at UNC was a club HC at the Breakers. He put together a phenomenal team and was by far the best squad in his age group. A lot of the boys on that team went high D1. The lesson, do your homework.

I'm curious, since you did your homework, what is the developmental philosophy of the club that you associate with and how does it differ from that of other clubs?
