Whether or not your daughter is the best girl on black or the worst girl on white. They should get what they paid for. Girls aren't asking to get into a D1 school when they don't belong there. Contacting a D2 or D3 coach is just as simple as contacting a D1 coach. Returning an email doesn't take that long no matter how many emails they have received. Is it too much to ask for common decency? My daughter says hello to every girl she sees at tournaments wearing TG stuff but the director and his daughter have a hard time doing that.


Brilliant post! Spot on!


Brilliant in your world maybe, clearly shows you don't have an understanding of the recruiting process. As it has been stated over and over, club coaches do not send emails, that is the players job. If a club director does not return an email, I would have an issue. College coaches normally call, not email, so I am skepical


So if the 95% have to do all the leg work themselves then what is the purpose of playing travel lacrosse?


What is the purpose!? OK, here is my $1,400 to play for your organization. My daughter wants to play at either Maryland, Syracuse, Florida or Northwestern and we prefer that she gives her verbal prior to her sophomore year. She is a pure goal scorer an only plays attack. Hey Asshat, if playing lacrosse in college is the goal then the purpose of travel lacrosse as others have stated is to get your daughter in front of college coaches at fall/summer tournaments. It is up to her to get noticed so that the college coaches reach out to the director. If you are interested in a college then you should also attend their fall/summer camps to potentially get noticed. Also, travel lacrosse gets your daughter to play games and attend practice with a better quality of players outside of her PAL.
