Fuller Hamlet U14G?

What happened to this team? If it's disbanded where did the players go? I'm pretty sure that Liverpool and Napoli didn't pick any up.

I'll get flamed for this but FH girls teams fall apart between the U-12 (high point) and U-14 or U-15 seasons. Sometimes the team still appears but the original personel are long gone.
They teach pretty good feet but a limited tactical style that by U-14 players start to see as not moving them forward and move on to better coaching.

Don't you know that the grass is always greener in Holliston, Acton/Boxboro and wherever the hell MPS is at any given moment. The central Mass clubs have taken the brunt of the exodus to the aforementioned clubs. Of course, everybody assumes that because these clubs are bigger, they must be better. It can't be the accents because Liverpool has a few. What most fail to realize is that talent is based on %'s. There are only so many good players. When some of the that % number decide to go elsewhere, there is no refilling of the trough. That is what happens to all of these clubs as the players age and parents are willing to drive longer distances to practice, etc... However, take a look at the Liverpool u17/18 boys now playing in Div1. The majority of the players have been with club since the team's inception and can play with anyone in the state (ask Blazers). If only some of the talent had not been lured away by the big city and bright lights of different clubs, these Central Mass clubs would have a much bigger footprint. Mergers, perhaps?

Liverpool u14 is a decent team.

Starting to see a return migration of players from other clubs. Not sure if its economics , treatment received, let downs for not making the "A" team, or somebody stopped the "insanity!" Scorpions recruited several players from the upcoming 16's. Nobody left.

FH seems to be addressing some issues that have long gone neglected. At least their is some effort into going forward on a positive course of action. Time will tell if Bowden's sticking his thumb in the dyke has managed to stem the tide.

FH teams actually had new players at try-outs this year, and their teams continue to improve. Their U14 team was destined for failure. Last fall a few players left for the stars and the remaining team was simply too diverse in talent to suceed. Their u16 team and U18 team maintained their full roster and added additional talent. Liverpool continues to pick up new talent as well. Boys seem to be the big draw. Coaching in fact is pretty solid for both clubs. Anyone can coach an all start team when 50 to 60 kids show up for a try-out. Much bigger challenge to pull off a winning season when 8-10 kids show up.
