They may not be the top girls however. And it may have less to do with Capital than to do with SSSA
That is an excellent point. I think it does our girls well by not joining forces until high school. And, oddly enough, they have started to enjoy beating each other up on the field and then talking about it when the game is over. Shows their true competitiveness
They will be fine at Capital as long as the majority of the Pride girls do go to Capital
I agree, you don’t need to be at Stars to makeBlue, but it does put you directly in front of the 28 Blue coach. That’s all I’m saying
The resilience of this theme on this thread is truly remarkable. An amazing need to jockey, or see who might be jockeying, among the parents in the DMV. Seems like focus should be on preparing for Summer Genesis Origins this week. I mean, Capital tryouts are in 13 months, right?
In any event, the Capital 28 coach and CLC decision-makers have a good sense of the talent pool and what clubs they are playing for this year and next. Agree strongly with the point that it's not necessary to be on Stars to make Capital, as well as the suggestion that maximizing touches and time with the ball in your stick in game play in middle school is beneficial.
Is there any way we can give this a rest and talk about actual upcoming games--at least until some of the best players in the DMV are together at American Select next month?
