Why haven’t people left this team yet?
Some have. Lost a few during tryouts, another mid fall last year, and then another to YJ at the end of the summer. Not enough spots on other teams for these kids and it’s so late in the game to switch.
It’s not too late. You and your daughter need to take
recruiting into your own hands. Research her top 10 schools and there’s a good chance a handful of them have clinics in December. Create a fall highlight film and have your daughter send out emails. Help empower her and make this a priority!
Not original poster but on this team and facing the same issue. We are doing everything in our power but it is very obvious which clubs have people on the inside who are helping push their kids. Their are multiple kids on our team better than committed kids who pushed schools heavily and didn’t get anything because the directors and coaches of the other kids, who we are friends with and speak to the parents of, had coaches texting the college coaches and making calls for them for the past year. They were able to get feedback after events on if a school was definitely not interested so they could use their time and money somewhere that may be a better fit. Sad that even with talent , those of equal talent who’ll get picked for the jersey they wear
College coaches offer spots to the players that they believe can help their program. Club directors, club coaches, high school coaches, college alumni, current players, coaches friends etc... have very little influence over who the college coach offers a spot to.
