When multiple clubs participant and feed their better players into one A team, it allows for an overall higher quality of A team.  The grouping of higher level players together on one team raises the level of training environment, which in turn leads to better results in games, which in turn allows for opportunities to play against better teams at showcases (which means more college scouts and scouts from better schools) and most of all, leads to better player development.

Please remember this post when folks bash on clubs telling you to 'find a good coach'. The players around you 100% matter.  Some on here don't believe that.[/quote]

Both the coaches and the players are the major part of the environment.  A good coach can improve poor players though, while a poor coach does not and can in fact make poor and good players alike worse by reinforcing bad habits.

Being on a winning team doesn’t mean your DC is improving, it just makes you both feel better. [/quote]

Nobody said anything about a winning team. Winning is a byproduct.[/quote]

Actually, winning all the time teaches very little. Neither does chronically having their butts handed to them. The best is to be on a team that wins some and loses some.  By losing some, players and teams learn about weaknesses.  By winning some, players and teams learn how to work together strategically and learn how to create a goal.  [/quote]
