[quote=Anonymous]One more POV...

Got a rising DS junior, who starts for both HS and travel teams.

Fortunately, his HS team is in the WCAC, which means great competition and lots of recruiting interest.

His travel team -- like far too many this spring -- imploded. While the family scrambled to assess where to potentially play, we converged upon ECNL and CCL1/2 teams given (no surprise):

1. The level of league competition
2. League playoffs/championships
3. Showcases
4. Tournaments

Again, none of this should come as a surprise. We spoke to a lot of experienced people. College coaches tend to focus on junior year, so getting exposure is critical.

Our DS stands on terra firma with his HS team, which is perennially a top squad.

We think he will be advantaged on his new travel team, which we play in OBCG Capital Cup, VYSA State Cup, JeffCup, and FC Delco.

Fingers crossed, he stays healthy with a good attitude, gels with his new team and coaches, and makes the most of this opportunity.
