[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing is more irritating than to listen to these VLC apologists say that club record doesn’t matter. If that’s so then just go to show cases and camps.[/quote]

Not an apologist at all.  There are plenty of things wrong with VLC, across all age groups and the administration of the club.  But you saying that club record is the measure of success of the club, especially at the high school age groups, clearly demonstrates you don't know what colleges are looking for.  College coaches could care less who wins or loses the games they are watching.  What they are looking for is how the kids they are scouting play, how they react to different situations both winning and losing, and if the kid is a fit for their program.  The coaches rarely watch a full game.  They have a tight schedule of different players they want to see and will jump from field to field, mid game, to see the players live instead of just the highlight tape.  It is also very rare to be noticed by a coach without prior contact.  They don't go to games looking to find players.  They go to games to see players that have reached out to them, provided their schedule, etc..

The advantage VLC/Crabs has right now over other local clubs is access to the tournaments and show cases where the college coaches attend and watch games.  So, if you play for another club, you need to make it worthwhile for the coach of the program you are interested in to come see you.  That can be a difficult task.[/quote]
