[quote=Anonymous]2. There are some teams where you don't have "to hope" that they develop into highly ranked teams because they already are. The coaches and the club have a track record of producing highly ranked teams that will get invited to showcases. Just look at the U14 elite teams in the EDP NL. Pipeline and Rush have clubs and coaches with track records of producing highly-ranked teams. You are correct that these teams will not play in the DA or ECNL showcases but when you beat ECNL teams to win the top brackets of Bethesda, Jefferson or Delco, you will get exposure. 1. Again, this gets to the point that you don't have give in the travel soccer by age 10 or the ECNL/DA industrial complex. All I am arguing is that if a kid is u12 or earlier, consider finding a really good soccer coach who coaches a competitive classic/select team and develop there for a year or so before going to travel if the option is the a C team or lower. If the option is an A or B team then go worth the A or B team as long as that team has strong coaches and is competitive. [/quote]
