[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But to the questioners point, assuming he or she wants their dd to play with girls who are on a path they’d hope to replicate, hows that a bad question? Not arguing where coaches recruit from but seemed like all of us the questioner was just trying to take a painfully opaque system a little more transparent. Or at least that’s how I took their questions.[/quote]

The problem is that the information the PP is looking at is incomplete.  There are many other girls who have committed that are not on those lists.[/quote]

Right, so dont use those lists to determine where your DD should play.

The high school she goes to is not important for getting recruited to play in college, as noted above.  Of course, college coaches are aware that certain schools do regularly have more of the area's best players and, in our area, far more outstanding players come from the ISL league private schools than any where else. Those schools usually have the most well known and connected coaches.  Also, there is the argument that you get better when you play with better players and against better compeition.

As for club, she can play for any club and if she is good college coaches will notice.  She will have a much better chance though if her club is playing in the right tournaments - and some like the Cheaspeake and the G8 are invitation-only and favored by the top colleges.  So, pick a club that is well-established and gets invited to those tournaments as that will help.

Its not really a big mystery - you need to be a great player, a great athlete, and willing to give the sport much of your time and effort.[/quote]
