[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And yet colleges don't check out teams to see those players if the record is so pitiful, it is unlikely to find some diamond in the rough.  If you watch a team with a strong record, there are multiple players worth looking at.  It's just much more efficient. [/quote]

That’s not how it works at all. Coaches are not watching games trying to find players. What a waste of time that would be. The coach would have no idea if that player lighting it up is interested in the program, could academically qualify to get in, or is already committed somewhere else! They don’t waste time doing that. If a coach is on the sideline it is to watch someone in particular.

They care about the level competition, if it’s a ECNL or DA game great. If it’s a showcase against tougher competition even better.

They could care less how well the team does. It’s about the player both on and off the field.[/quote]

Factually incorrect.  Great theory.  Reality works out differently.  When your kid gets older, you'll get it.  I will concede ECNL gives some flicker of hope for something, but the player will really need to work hard in reaching out to the coach, following up with ID sessions where she can showcase away from her team, and things like that.  [/quote]

If you are not working really hard and doing that too you won’t be recruited. It’s all player driven. Good luck to you.[/quote]

Sure, you just have to work extra hard if you are on a terrible team.  You have to rely on ID sessions, instead of showcasing via your team.  Which on a certain level, it also means you could drop to a CCL team and save those dollars for more ID sessions, [/quote]

ECNL is a flicker of hope? Keep gaslighting. You must have missed NLI signings this week. LMAO ? [/quote]

Not sure what you think I said or how in the world that would be gaslighting.  You may not know what the term means.  I meant that by being in the ECNL on such a strong national platform, that the player has some hope of being seen - more so than in a lower level league.

I'm kind of on the fence though about that.  Is it better to be with a lousy ECNL team or a strong team in another league?  I'm not completely sure.  I'll have to think on it. [/quote]
