[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an ECNL daughter.  How many ECRL girls can get moved up and become a starter on the NL team?  I think that's why you don't see girls moved up.

On my daughter's team, I've see 3 girls moved up over the years.  They sat on the bench for a year, hardly playing.  The following year, team has a player come from outside and this girl moved back down.  I find that those girls and parents are happier on the ECRL team, where she plays lots of minutes and is a strong player on the team.  So, I think realistically, kids who move up aren't good enough to take a starting position and the next shiny new girl who shows up pushes her back down.

I guess my club is better than lots of others in general because a girl does get the opportunity to move up.  But all 3 moved back down the following year.[/quote]

I think that pretty much sums it up, fair or not players being brought up from the 2nd team don't get the minutes on the top team that they're used to and either ask to go back down or switch clubs.[/quote]
