[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is really hard to get accurate reviews on these type of events. Parents whose kids were selected will say that the selection process is great and hands down the right kids were selected. Parents of kids who were not selected will question the selection process. Parents whose kids perform well at the event will tell you how great the event is. Parents whose kids get on a bad team or don’t perform well will tell you that the event isn’t worth going to. These events are all built around making money and making families feel like they are a necessary part of the recruiting process. The fact that they keep expanding the age levels shows they have gotten the families to buy into that idea. [/quote]

My kid was selected and we attended. The top 50 kids were really good, lots of talent, but the back 50, they were not very good. Teams were all over the place as they were randomly assigned. Girls from clubs that never played against a top 50 ranked club before.

Part of the problem was, they wouldn't take more than 5 kids from the same club, which in reality, you could have 15 deserving kids on a top-20 club team be better than the best player on a 100th ranked team. To their credit, they wanted to diversify the selections regionally.

Not true at all.  M&D and Skywalkers each had double digit kids at both age groups. [/quote]
