This is the summer where it all starts to change. Look to your left, look to your right. Those girls are competition. Nobody cares about tourney titles. Limited fall and spring practices because of high school sports. Your coach can only recommend a certain amount of players for showcases. College coaches that call next year will want a small handful of names. Stop caring about the roster, winning and losing. It's all about your daughter.

Can you elaborate on coach recommend for showcases and college coaches asking for names?

For any of the big invite showcases, juniors open, UA 150, Best In Class, club directors pretty much decide who on their club goes. For Juniors open and BIC, club directors submit a ranked list; for UA150, after applications, club directors are asked to ranked everyone from their club based on their recruit ability.

For example (and Im making these numbers up), YJ may be 12 spots at an invite for , Heros may get 8, Steps may get 6 and Legacy may get 2, , etc. It's up to the director who gets the spots.

On Instagram, you have already seen some of the early invites for Best In Class and Juniors Open, those were the girls at the top of their clubs' lists.

Its not the end of the world not attending these events, but it you aren't a starter on a top team, you have pretty much no chance of ever getting invited.
