SW could "click" by High School, but its going to be because of roster turnover, girls developed by other clubs who come to SW for recruiting purposes.
You've actually got it completely backwards. what clubs do you think "develop" girls ?? That's comical. my daughter
plays for M&D so I can tell you there's no development happening there m. They are a collector of already talented players or players who are strong at a young age. There's no magic coaching or teaching there. Skywalkers problem with their young teams is they force their teams to move the and transition the ball instead of letting the best player or
physically biggest player run up and down with the ball. They take super athletic girls in the young age instead of girls with the beat stickwork. Sometime playing the right way hurts their teams but when they get older they
move the ball and play fast. Girls at M&D constantly pay (a lot) for outside training. i can't speak to their clubs but the development is being done by the girls themselves[/quote]
Disagree on this bit. While there isn't much "skill" development from club and I agree that most players were talented before they got there, I do believe there is development.
This development comes from having to go up against talented players 3 times a week in practices and having to compete for playing time. This is why a talented player from a lower level club, say Next Level or NEMS, would really grow at a top 4 club.
