I'll answer that question too. Because while it's not as obvious to the first time middle school parents, high-level D1 colleges recruit primarily on speed and athletic ability. Fundamentals are also expected to be very good. The best players at middle school are by and large going to be the best players coming out of HS in the recruiting years (there are obviously exceptions in both directions). The club doesn't matter as much as the old legacy clubs like to imply. The top colleges are going to find the top players, no matter where they are. Coppermine is a big program, so it's not exactly like the colleges have to do a lot of digging to find them. They're all on Sportsrecruits. Right now at all MS and younger years, the top players are at Coppermine, and there is no longer any need to leave for HS. It's not any more complicated than that.
Any other questions?
Can you make it any more obvious you're on the Coppermine bandwagon? The top MS and younger players are at Coppermine? That's just completely false. What would Hero's, M&D, and MU have to say about that? That's hilarious.
The Coppermine bandwagon doesn't live in reality. They think their club is a top club, meanwhile their top talent will all leave for the better recruiting at the Big clubs. Don't fall for the late night infomercial sale tactics that Coppermine is pushing. The MS teams will not have the same talent come HS, book it now.
SW is desperately trying to hold on to past reputation. SW does not have a dedicated recruiting person and if they did it’s hard to get average players to the top schools all the parents want. You can stay on the sinking sw ship if you want but try to make others think they should be getting on board too.
