[quote=Anonymous]Why was yesterday’s BRYC quotes deleted about them losing at Jeff Cup? Thought it was an interesting read. I have a DD who we are thinking of trying out at Braddock. Saw that the team loss but the games were close. Interested in knowing if the coach played to win, or to show his players. [/quote]

SHOWCASE

1-18 gets on the field.

Are posters seriously criticizing BRYC for losing showcase matches in the top flight of Jeff cup, during high school season. I apologize on behalf of my daughter that played 5 matches last week with 2 high school and 2 club training sessions. She and her team mates clearly didn't live up to what posters on DCUM expect from them.

The "showcases don't matter" trope is a bit old. Although there is more emphasis on getting everyone on the field, these games are still important if for nothing else, to make sure your club gets exposure. It can affect seeding from year to year which is important for Jeff cup because of the way their process works. It is also a good indicator of club depth. When you see a team that does well in league play and gets smoked at Jeff Cup, you may want to think about where your DD will fit on the depth chart for that team.

Seeding for ECNL teams at Jeff cup seems to be going off league standings, ECNL clubs don't need to worry about getting exposure as they have multiple ECNL showcases they will always have spots in. To Non ECNL/DA clubs Jeff cup seeding will be very important....

When you are in a closed league like DA or ECNL no Jeff Cup seeding is not that important because the league provides more showcase environments. Jeff Cup is a nice extra bit of exposure at a well respected showcase.

Notice how at U16 and alder that there are no "Finals". These are competitive, glorified scrimmages in front of college coaches. Kids playing well individually and competitively as a team is all that matters. There is no championship game, just a third game. So yes, obsessing over showcase scores at this stage is a waste of time.

Yup, and when the kid gets a face to face meeting with the coach I strongly recommend that they wear all their soccer tourney medals.

DD is 04. Was not posting to offend Bryc. Heard parents were not happy on playing time, after being promised half. We have a coach right now that plays half, it’s frustrating.

In a showcase environment it isn't always the minutes that matter as much as knowing when the minutes will be. If a coach is coming to watch, knowing which half you are playing in can be pretty useful to let the college coach know when to expect the player to play.

Obviously it doesn’t matter to the coaches. They are there to evaluate prospects. It matters to the players
