[quote=Anonymous]Don’t forget MS players are young kids. Any temptation of more field time isn’t going to lure them (even the top ones) to leave their teammates when Capital is in their backyard and sending kids to great schools.

Then there’s the dynamic of trying to break into a new clique of established players. It’s never easy. If your kid has ever done this you know what I’m talking about. If you’re a DMV player trying to break into a MD club, consider that challenge (regardless of how good you are). The chemistry of those players has been established. MD parents have been making moves / currying favor with those club directors and coaches through the MD club pipeline years before MS to lock in those starting positions. DMV players who don’t grow up in the MD club scene are naturally viewed as outsiders. We know an extremely talented older player who would have been on a Capital path but chose to go to an MD club. She made an A team, but it was not a good experience for her for this reason.
