sounds like the girls on both teams have different philosophies for what they want out of soccer. Why exactly should the better players at MP jump ship to go to Bridge? You think they should go just because Bridge wants "some" of them in order to make Bridge happy. In my world, that is called an entitlement attitude. Shows total lack of respect for the MP players and parents.
If MP want to make their team better, AS A TEAM, then good for them. As CHT has stated, the girls need a say in where they want to play. I know of one guy who has two children that play and he constantly is moving all over the place. The kids are miserable because part of soccer for them is having fun with the their teammates. Dad doesn't care, he just wants them on winning teams. Wins don't mean as much when the players don't like playing with the "winning" team because of how those winning players behave and treat one another.
I just think it is incredibly arrogant to think the MP girls should jump ship just because Bridge feels they need a few good players to round out their roster.
Perhaps before any talks of a merger of the teams needs to start, some people need to learn to show respect for the other team, both players and parents.

You seem to be angry about something????? All i am interested in is having my daughter play on a team where she is happy and meeting her own goals. Not mine,not yours and not a club.As far as the "some" players, i was referring to the girls i think have the same goals as mostof the girls on the Bridge.
