The idea that Madlax has some recruiting network that other clubs don't is ridiculous. They've had plenty of really good kids commit to good schools for sure, but those same kids could have done so on their own playing for any club. Just because you can collect talent doesn't mean that the kids are any better off from a recruiting stand point. If my kid is wearing an evergreen jersey and puts together a great tape, college and high school coaches are not going to turn their noses up. Madlax sells this fantasy that only they can provide opportunities for kids and that's why you must pay double what other clubs charge. The coaching isn't any better than competing clubs, the opportunities and connections aren't any better, the tournaments they attend aren't any better, they just have a better sales pitch that preys on the insecurities of parents. |
