[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suppose if you believe coaches routinely recommend weaker players over stronger ones, you can say it's entirely political, but that's not generally the case in our experience. When my kid attended a bunch of these, he recognized kids from several other teams he'd played against, and all of them were the kids he thought were the best on their teams. Coaches who recommend duds will ultimately find that the evaluators don't respect their opinions and scouting ability.[/quote] It means that there may be 20 players all equal, and some get the invite and some don't. Some clubs are more heavily represented. When my DD used to go, we saw more players from an ECNL team that was in the bottom third of the conference than from teams better placed. Now, they were ECNL players. And ECNL and DA girls are generally speaking at a higher level, but you can't tell me the losing team has a larger number of better players. That's politics. [/quote]
