More advice to parents. This previous post is from a SW parent trying to con Coppermine parents to moving kids to SW. M&D and Hero's aren't worried by Coppermine's rise, but SW is. This explains all of the shade that people will throw at Coppermine for the next few years. SW is a dying program. It's early in the transition, but it's still dying. Like TLC about 4-5 years ago.[/quote]
These comments are probably made by a parent of a younger player or a Coppermine parent. SW 25's are getting ready to be recruited top to bottom this fall, the 26's are good, the 27's turned over 5-6 girls at tryouts as did the 28's. 28 SW are already nipping on the heals of the Coppermine team anyway. SW is doing what they always do which is accelerating as their teams head to high school. Now look at Coppermine 25'a, 26,'s, 27's ??? They may have a decent recruit here and there but it will not be like SW. Coppermine 28's are their strongest team and if they can stay together and attract talent as it seems like they did at tryouts that could jump start them in to high level recruiting which is a good thing. There's enough girls playing now that you need more than the traditional three. But Coppermine 29's are decently good - not like the 28's and the 30's are average and just lost key players to M&D and had a 4 girl deep walk off cause of parent coaching. So from middle school up Coppermine has one strong team. No one is "worried" about their "rise". |
