If you are not a top 12 or so player on your team you are probably better off playing for a team where you are so you get a more touches. There are plenty of high level D1 players that didn’t play for a top club team but killed it at prospect days and showcases. That’s how most kids get noticed. Don’t let club directors tell you that you need them to get recruited.
