[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear this comment constantly that the gap is closing and the USWNT is being surpassed by other countries.   What I see is  rather simple. Other countries are investing in their womens programs and a level they had never done before.  With that investment comes increases in players volumes and ultimately their skill level.   The USA might have had a head start to some degree, one could argue other countries have been on the same pace just not as successful.

Why all the criticism of the US womens program with claims that the rest of the world has caught up?
What program has dominated for decades before others catch up?

Bottom line the USWNT is still at the very top whether they play a technical or a physical game.   Why all the push to have them change style because you believe the rest of the world is catching up[/quote]

Leaving aside the national team player pool, this is another post confirming the view that girls should not prioritize technical development because physical, athletic is where it’s at. College game and coaches’ priorities confirm this as well. If getting a college spot/scholarship is the goal for most, then the message is clear.[/quote]
