Long Islander here and this whole age based argument seems like a smoke screen to the real issue that YJ needs to do a better job of recruiting and developing the bigger, stronger and faster girls. I guarantee LI has the right mix of players that can go toe to toe with the MD girls. There's no doubt in my mind CR could put together the best team in any age group that could easily hang with all MD teams but the real question is has YJ become too much of a political machine and more concerned with you scratch my back I will scratch yours?
Why do you believe that the top YJ teams already do not beat the MD teams ? Not uncommon for the top TJ teams to lose to MD teams then around 8-9 th grade they start to dominate them ( 2016, 2017) age groups. Don't believe the hype from the MD teams they still lose on a regular basis to YJ .
As far as clubs go there is M&D and YJ sitting on top, regardless of age or anything else. The groups of clubs following is certainly stronger from MD than LI.
