Sounds like you and your club director have different ideas of best players on your team.
Events like under amour, american select, NYSR, etc are an honor if youre making the first team. So the top AS team, NYSR Navy, UA150, Underarmour spotlight vs command, etc. Being selected to a 2-4th team is not as great. Its the same concept as being a clubs A team versus B or C team.
NYSR is for fun only. Went last year and my daughter had a blast. But no real coaches to be seen. Maybe if you are looking to go to Albany you might get lucky if they walk over.
If you make the top team of American Select you are probable a top recruit. That team is stacked!
Is there going to be a 2023 American Select team?
Doubt it. Better girls will do UA if anything. And as far as being a top recruit if you made the black team. Not true. There will probably be about 5 top recruits on that team. Look at last years team. Only a few girls went to top (20) programs. But don’t take my word for it…you will see I’m right next fall.
You obviously have no clue. If you follow the girls on Long Island you would know that the most of the top players were on the black team. There are a couple that shouldn’t be on it but the top 20 Long Island 2024s are on that black team this year. There is one girl that plays for top guns that’s not on the team. If you look at last year’s 2023 team which is not nearly as strong as this year’s 2024, you would conclude that there were many top players on that team. If you go through the roster you could see where they committed. Yale, Florida, Binghamton, Quinnipiac, Notre Dame, Fordham, Virginia, Florida, Albany, Stony Brook, Stanford, duke, Villanova, navy, JMU, Stanford, Stonybrook. That’s just from last year’s black 2023 team that played at American Select.
