[quote=Anonymous]Freedom and Warhawks have the strongest players with great at coaching.  Taking individual players that are strong but having them function as a unit is why they win.  These teams because they have numerous players can put together a strong A team and will continue to dominate the region because of their talent pool and excellent coaching.  Must stress the excellent coaching.  It’s what makes these teams win.

Wolves have strong individual players (lots of committed kids) but do not work as a unit.  This is why they stall out with top teams.  Coaching is not strategic and not team based.  The motto from the head coach is the players need to figure it out versus coaching staff teaching.  They haven’t learned how to space which causes them to throw away many good opportunities.  Their goalies are top notch.  Again, individually skilled players but no team cohesion.  I see this as a core coaching problem that will have them fall in their “elite” status.  This team is on a downhill trajectory unless coaching style dramatically changes.

Next Level is on the rise.  Since it’s a large club the team can truly have an A team like Freedom and Warhawks.  Those players are individually strong but the coaching focuses on stick skills and field vision which leads to good team cohesion.  This team will be in the ranks of Freedom and Warhawks soon.

H20 talent is growing similar to Next Level but smaller club feel.  They will give the top teams a run the money in the next couple of years.

Alpha has grown too quickly.  Although lots of players, they only have a few strong players.  Coaching is inconsistent.   Lots of yelling from the sidelines.  This team is on a downhill trajectory unless a major club overhaul.

Hymax is a small club.  Coaching is strong but their player recruitment is hit or miss causing inconsistencies in the overall team.  They have potential if their recruitment of players were stronger.[/quote]
