100% of all Girls DA teams and players are required to play the exact same system and formation. The same formation played by the National Team (currently a 4-3-3). Only 0.5% of the girls will actually have a chance to be on the National Team. So 100% of DA girls will have only played the same formation their entire DA careers (some start at 11 years old).
On the surface that might be ok. But here is THE ACTUAL FLAW: since DA teams can only play against other DA teams, 100% of the girls have also only played AGAINST the same formation.
DA defenders know exactly what to expect and attackers know where the holes are, week in and week out! Suddenly they get to college (or on the international scene) and nothing computes anymore.
DA coaches are simply not allowed to change anything on the fly, even if they see a weakness they can exploit. Is there any doubt that upper management at US Soccer have their heads so far up their azzes that they can't see what's going on back on earth??
