Curious. What’s the difference?

Saw both my DSs wanted college ball. Playing in same clubs helped build their knowledge of the coaches and the game. It also helps you as a parent!

I think they are referring to 'nepotism' you often see with siblings. I see vastly different level of play among siblings yet all 3 or 4, etc. will somehow all make the same level team. Granted, some families all the sibs are strong, but it isn't the case a lot of the time and the younger one gets a free ride on the older ones reputation.

I mean, clubs are not in an easy spot here…

Ummm. Why? Not all siblings are academy/red players. They should be placed accordingly. Why is that hard?
