[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Club volleyball at the top level is a ruthless sport. I know of plenty kids who have been cut by metro travel at 14&15 age groups. It’s when ‘potential’ needs to start being realized. College coaches are x100 more ruthless than anything Metro can throw at you. That said, Metro love poaching talent from their rivals, and plenty of them sit on the bench all season.[/quote] +1 Metro poaches because they don't do a good job of developing players. They rely on just poaching the best athletes whom other clubs have developed. And, as the PP mentioned, often times some of these kids they poach end up standing on the sidelines all season because Metro will put 15 players on their roster for financial purposes and so that they can hog all the talent to weaken their local competition. Their grip in the area has somewhat been loosened because some (not a lot, but some) of these really talented athletes and players have decided to go the Paramount route instead and have actually beaten Metro Travel teams while playing for Paramount.
