Chicken v Egg : Do MD & Heros have the most success because they develop the best talent, or because they have the best reputations and can be highly selective and sign the best talent??? Geographically, they have the deepest talent pools to draw from - Howard, Carroll, Baltimore counties etc. You can switch coaches from MD & Heros with a B level coach and those teams would still be successful because of pool of players they can draw from. So many girls jumping clubs in 4-5-6 grades because their parents think they will get better opportunity with higher level club.

Is it better for a player to get limited playing time at attack and sitting at X to back up FP shots on a really good team, or would they have better chance for growth as a leader on a non elite team. ??
