It is nice to get away from some of the players and parents that you have been selected to play with and play with people you choose. If the only thing you do is tg lacrosse, then yes M&D or some of the YJ teams the girls will see more practice and training, but most girls from TG play 75% or more of their lacrosse in non TG events, thank goodness.

I think that the point of the original post was that none of the long island clubs are getting an appropriate amount of practice for the summer season compared to maryland teams, which do charge less and deliver more - that's an undisputable fact. the older teams, especially where most kids are committed or close to it could care less, but I'm sure the rest of the teams would like to have 15-20 practices by the time the summer season starts
