Kruger is a good coach, solid pedigree, he gets it.

They're really young, but my experience with Hero's teams is that the top kids play a lot, the middle kids play often, and the lowest 2-3 play a little.

It's club, you're not paying for game time, you're paying for coaching and practice reps. If you want more playing time, be better than the next girl up. Just my two cents.


Hero’s used to, at least, tell a different story. That if you made the team, you could play for the team. Close to equally.

Isn’t the whole notion of club to play all girls because its point is recruiting? Whereas high school teams you play based on perceived skill and only to win.

That’s a lot of money to pay to be on a practice squad. No from me.


The goal is to win during the younger years so you are ranked high and get the good players and come recruiting time, lots of coaches on the sidelines. Once sophomore year comes, it is equal playing time.


“The goal is to win during the younger years, so you are ranked high and get the good players come recruiting time.”

This is not the mentality of the very top clubs. It doesn’t need to be. If it were, Hero’s Green would run their ES teams much differently.


My observation having had three girls go through Hero’s….

No. Until high school, club is all about winning. Then in high school, club is also about recruiting. But winning is still very important.
