1. Seems to me that Bridge is slipping a little. Now, is this due to USSF Academy on the boys side? Or something else?
2. CUFC seems to be gaining competitive momentum. Is their success coming from Bridge, CESA, or soemthing else?
3. Is there an increase of "mom and pop" clubs in Final 4? Small little clubs with just 1 team in the Final 4?
Seems to me that 2 years ago.....you had a Big 2, Bridge and CESA. Then you had a couple of clubs that maybe had a couple of competitve teams, CUFC, Lexington, MPSC, etc. Then the odd club here or there that had a very sepcial team like the Discoveries 90 team.
Now.....looks like CESA is more or less holding constant, CUFC is making a strong push up, Bridge is fading, and the number of clubs with 1 strong team is multiplying rapidly.
Before (Final 4): 2 clubs dominate all ages, another 2-3 clubs with a couple of teams that are competitve, a few clubs with 1 team here or there.
Now (Final 4): CUFC and CESA dominating, Bridge still there but fading, a whole bunch of clubs with 1 team or so.
Is this assessment right?
