Hi all - just interested in your thoughts. I have always heard 2 philosophies on choosing a team for your daughter or in my daughter's case at 16U letting her choose. I have heard "choose playing time over the better team" or have heard the exact opposite.
I would love to get opinions on this. My daughter had options to play for teams where she would definitely play all the time OR to go back to her team which is a powerhouse team and while my daughter is awesome, so is everyone else - so everyone fighting for playing time. She decided to go back to her team and fight for playing time rather than be a total standout on another team. She works VERY hard, goes to camps, clinics and communicates with college coaches already but I feel like what if a college coach comes to see her and she is not playing that game. Would love to hear thoughts and opinions.
