Jesters is very good, but they are a little overrrated at #3.
They are in the top-10 conversation for sure.
Rankings are definitely fun for players/parents. But at the end of the day, the goal should be developing players.
Very true but they are semi-related. You need to retain top players and recruit top players in order to get better so girls can develop. Rankings are a big part of both aspects. They aren't 100% accurate of course, but pretty close to it, especially end of year rankings after each club has played over 25 games.
