Team long island should be focus on recruiting. Not shorten there bench to win tournaments. Not what is about at this age
You continue to be the most clueless idiot on BOTC! Team long Island never shortens their bench! They only carry 19 kids and they all play equally! As far as "playin to get recruited". That is exactly what is wrong with parents and travel lacrosse. You think sports is only a tool to get you into college. That's why half these kids hate playing and are out there for the wrong reasons. Sports teaches kids way more than just getting you into a school. If that is what you want why not keep your kid in all weekend and spend your money on tutors!!! Kids should learn [lacrosse] to compete,be a great teammate, be loyal and work hard to achieve their goals. It's obvious you have never played a college sport in your life. If you did u would really understand how sports can shape the rest of your kids life. If your kid is OK that it's a hobby, that is pathetic. I'm sure his college coach will enjoy your kids lack of commitment to being great! You can do what you want w your kid. We are just fine competing hard and trying to win every ground ball and winning as much as possible! Here is a hint, college coaches love competitive kids! The days of the entitled private school kids are coming to an end soon! Don't worry about our kids getting recruited, they are doing just fine!
