Slick x2, are you in a physical relationship with Slava, I mean Slick?
Wow, quite the intellectual.
You can be in any league, event, tournament, or just High school and there can be scouts, coaches, etc looking at players but normally that doesn't matter much unless your player has already made contact or is on the radar of the people at those events.
Exposure at a event or league doesn't mean anything if they're not really taking a hard look or deeper dive at your player.
The majors have so many players there looking at, they don't normally pay much attention to a rando player,maybe they take a note or will remember if the player contacts them right after or during the event.
Some blind offers may come for a random player that is a standout but those are most likely from small or obscure organizations that don't have a lot of draw.
The contacts your coaches, club, and the relationships your player makes with those at the next level is more important vs any league. Build those relationship and don't worry about which league much, perform at the events, playoffs, leagues or whatever to back that up.

Parents also need to work the relationship angle and make sure your TM feels grateful and supported by the player/parent(s), so they will put in a good word for your playa and let the scouts know the type of human being your player truly is, just saying

Double Morons- who knew!!
I would say this is mostly true. My dd has written to about 25 schools starting at the end of her freshman year (she is '25). Some of those schools have come to watch her play and some haven't. However, her club coach has heard from 11 other schools who have expressed interested in my dd based upon seeing her play in games. My dd had never reached out to these schools and some are power 5. We will see which schools are really interested in a few weeks, but I think playing in ECNL/GA events against highly ranked teams can get you noticed. I still think making a list of schools during freshmen year, writing them and sending video is an essential part of the process.

That is why it is up to the player to target the colleges and coaches, and not just hope to be "discovered".
No doubt... and if I'm a coach, I want a kid that writes or calls me. More than once. If you're joining my family for the next 4-5 years, I need to know you want to be here. The sad part is that I see better players, on smaller clubs, not getting the same shake as lesser player (I've watched both grow up and play for years) because lesser player has "ECNL" behind her name. That's aggravating but life isn't fair.
Unfortunately, part of the problem with coaches having too much power is this very construct.
Sounds like you are on top of things. Are you including a link to her highlights with those emails? Plus these emails are a way to let the schools know you are interested in them. They can come watch, like what they see, but don't know if you have any interest. ECNL/GA is the best place to get seen in SoCal, this coming from a parent that never had her kid playing in either of those leagues. It isn't the only way to play in college. I think the combination of your emails and playing ECNL/GA give you a huge advantage and will give you a number of choices. Consider playing time as one of the criteria when choosing your school.

Go to as many College ID Camps as possible and make a name for yourself...
How the USWNT’s pipeline got fractured by a youth soccer turf war
The USWNT team has continued to win. But beneath the surface, cracks are crystalizing. With European powers investing and improving, the vulnerable balance of power in international women’s soccer is shifting.

LMAO! Yes, make a name for yourself by funding as many college programs as possible.
The article is a great summary of the success and subsequent failure of the DA. The DA completed changed the landscape for women‘s youth soccer and then a few years into it, completely yanked the support from the women’s game. The conclusion is eye opening—the USWNT will succumb to European traditional academies and then throw tons of $$$$, numbers and GDP at the women‘s game. Sounds like how the USA reacted in World War II.
