[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a ‘30 parent and was intent on having my DD leave her team for an MD team but the Capital recruiting record is compelling. [/quote]

Move her to Maryland. Don’t waste the middle school years at stars and Pride. Come back to Capital if you want for High School. [/quote]

Making the top Capital team is not a sure thing and many or most players try to improve their chances by attending the pre-tryout clinics. This is expected for players on the DMV teams, so nobody is surprised when they show up. But when a player from a top MD team shows up at the clinics word gets out and this has the potential to create some drama. It becomes difficult to go all-in on the Capital tryout process while still maintaining good standing on the MD club. I’m not suggesting this never happens, but there are more complexities for a MD player than a DMV player. For a 2030 already on a top MD team it would be best to take the ride all the way to the end. If a player really wants to play for Capital in HS then staying on a (good) local team for MS is the best path.[/quote]

Given the Capital recruiting stats it makes no sense for a strong DMV player to move to MD. [/quote]

2 main reasons for a player to move to a MD team:

Pride and Stars.

For recruiting, you still have to be a strong player, being on capital doesn’t guarantee you anything.  As others have said, a lot of these players are getting little to no money from schools with rosters of 30-40+[/quote]

I read back one whole page and found this, which is at odds with your analysis:

“My daughter played for Capital - every top 20 recruited player on her team (excluding ivies) received scholarship money.”
