The Girls 2007 Thread

[Guest]

Only one 2007 white player recruited. Am I missing something? Half of blue still isn’t recruited either.

Ots still early considering many white players will go tonlower ranked programs that recruit later, especially D3. White players do fine, they're just not going to top soccer programs. I believe there have been several Blue players already announced

She played up a year last season.

Are you confusing recruited with committed?
All the players could be getting recruited just haven’t committed yet.

Blue has 10 2025 players committed, 4 not committed yet and 6 that are 2026s. I’d say that’s pretty good for the beginning of November (no other 07 team in New England compares right now).

It’s really mostly P5 programs that are pretty much done w 2025s right now. White will probably see a bunch of commits after the January showcase and through the spring (as will Scorpions, NEFC).

So many will transfer after year one. They all want the d1 headline until they realize it’s not a fit and they aren’t d1. It’s not just soccer. Happens in basketball as well.

"Many" has different definitions. Many is not most. You should Include in "many" those who drop the sport altogether either because of burnout, no good transferring options or their liking the school outweighs soccer. The majority still make it through. Good targeting and a good attitude is vital to success

They're probably better off transferring from a P5 to somewhere else than from a mid-major. A rigorous athletic/academic lifestyle isn't for everyone, for sure.

The question is, does the club push kids signing to schools that are unlikely to give them minutes, or wont give them any money, jsut so they can flex # of signings?

Playing stronger teams is better for soccer development.

Only up to a point.
[/QUOTE]But kids keep joining and keep getting recruited. [/QUOTE]It’s not clear either part of that is still true. For example, at one time some of the Metrowest players on the Surf 2008 team would’ve moved to Blue or White. But that hasn’t happened.

[Guest]

Class of 2024 NEFC & Stars had 40 & 46 commits, respectively (so far). Anyone else even come close????

Clubs aren't very involved. Almost all the work is up to the players and their families. They need to assess fit and likelihood of playing as best they can.

Clubs pushing kids to inappropriate programs shoot themselves in the foot - twice. They won't have a good college track record (bad for business) and college coaches stop taking their calls if they oversell players that don't work out. It's a bad idea.

Pretty quick switch from HS to club about to start.

Not gonna happen. Too many kids moved on.

The poster was just attempting to poke fun at Aztec. Weird since no one from Aztec has said anything in eons but some posters just can’t let their superiority complex go.
