[quote=Anonymous]I'm going to weigh in a little bit generically because for me it's a conceptual issue, and not about wins, losses or any particular players PER SE.  In rec, the goal is to have fun and for everyone to do their best.  That's the measure of success.

When a player decides to participate in travel, there is an understanding that not all players are equal and not everyone can and should make the team.  This augments with each level of team, so an academy team is really at the top of the pyramid.

For these players, they are expected to be committed and to be held responsible for how they play, including to themselves.  College coaches also scout for that, for players who take ownership.  They are also supposed to be true students of the game.  They should be watching it on tv, watching other teams play, evaluating what they see, and learning from that.  The very best players aren't just the best because of technical skill and speed.  They also read the game better.[/quote]
