NJ did not fair well at NAL. See you all at the Prime Time tryouts. JK it is the kid not the club. All the NJ clubs at the NAL have commits in 22 and 23. Yes some more than others. Yes LE gets 15 of the 50 NJ commits has a year. But 30 plus come from other clubs. Some leave NJ for stronger programs than NJ can offer like 91, express, prime time, 2 way, eclipse etc.

Recruiters will find your son if he is an athlete and has the size, skill and speed for the division.

Personally I just want to enjoy their high school days. A college sport is a job.

Clubs can play a very large role in the recruiting process at the D1 level.

Having the size, speed, etc. is 100% essential to get noticed, but coaches look at more than that. Take their perspective for a second. They see hundreds, maybe thousands of players each weekend. They may watch your son’s team for a half, if you’re lucky. Watch a half, check out both teams, move to another field and repeat.
- It becomes really hard to compare their favorite player from game 1 to a very similar player in game 20.

No matter what club you are on, they will reach out to the coach to learn more about the player. These relationships build over the years and become valuable when making tough decisions.

If you trust your club coach, and the college coach trust’s their opinion, then you are in a good spot! But do not under estimate the role that they play in the process.

Yes. Agreed for the top players on each club. There are about 25 3 star plus players in NJ each grad year.

The rest of the players on the back 85% end of every NJ club 22 or 23 roster and the back 70% of LE for you LE heads need to do a lot of the recruiting work themselves. Those players realize they have to go to D1, D3 and D2 showcases and college prospect days. That is what a lot of these seniors do in their junior/senior summer and fall. There is nothing wrong with this process. A club is not the complete answer for most of our children.
