I'm not quite sure how Maryland got drawn into this, considering M&D and Skywalkers have better teams then both LI clubs at nearly all of those age groups.

The blue kids will be placed together for each fall tournament and the second team if entered will be gold plus bubble blue players. You don't have to believe it but its true.

And YJ teams 3 thru 8 in all age groups get nothing. Ohhh well they get the same invoice as everyone else.

As an outsider to both clubs but looking for a place for my daughter to tryout for next summer I am trying to understand. One club is an elite year round program who claims to only take the best but actually takes everyone and has year round coaches that are far superior to the 8-10 practice part time summer Top Gun program with terrible coaches that sleep and eat during games. Using both dramatically different models, the programs are basically tied in top team performance? The only difference is one program has 6 zeros in their checking account and one has 7.

The funny thing is the 3rd YJ team at U15 outplayed your horrible TG team, and have seen more interest in YJ 2016 third team than your TG purple 2016.

Why are you so insecure? Why do you consistently call the YJ 2017 2nd blue team your 3rd team? Your 3rd team was not in Denver as I have a friend who plays on the 3rd team. This is probably the 4th or 5th time I have seen you play down your 2nd team at that age level just to say the U15TG team lost to your "3rd" team. If you were there then you would know that it was not a blowout, that TG was winning with about 7 minutes left, that there were many controversial calls with one including a question with the clock at halftime with a penalty and the time keeper happened to be affiliated with YJ, that the last call before TG possession change at end of game should have been at the minimum an obstruction by the goalie besides the fact she was being tomahawked all the way in to the goal (which was scored BTW) and that YJ stalled with at least 5 minutes left in the game. YJ won yes, but they are a solid 2017 team. Stop putting them down as it insults your own organization. No one has ever challenged that they beat the mixed 2017/2018 TG team, but stop referring to them as the "3rd"team as they clearly are not moron!

Not even sure where to begin. First you sound like a complete puss when you make up excuses for your loss. Second stalling is part of the game your coach is famous for it so you now seem to be ignorant as well. Third the YJ team you lost to was the third best YJ U15 team there, they took third and have lost to both the other YJ teams.Fourth it was in response to your toolbag tg friends saying if you are not on top two teams in YJ the team stinks when in fact they beat your useless tg team.

This guys an [lacrosse], and is why every other club in the country hates the Y.J. parents

To all girls teams, please do the boys communities a favor and sign the FO petition. Many boys have worked very hard for what they have perfected and we feel like the rules committee got it wrong.

Go back to the boys forum. Why should the girls sign a petition that has nothing to do with their sport? Did you sign any petitions regarding keeping helmets out of girl's sports?

This makes your petition seem weak if you are asking girls to sign it.

Why do yj rarely send girls to Ivys???

Because they would rather send a kid who is Ivy eligible to Florida so they can brag about that kid playing in the Final Four.

Some families see lacrosse as an advantage in obtaining admission to Ivy league schools. Girls recruited to Duke, Notre Dame and ACC schools etc may choose an Ivy wanting to be competitive but not entirely focused on winning a Final Four. Although lacrosse is a big part of the lives of these young girls, they may not want it to be the major component of their college life. You have to find a balance of what works for you. To assume the girls who choose Ivies, Stanford as well as top academic DIII schools like Amherst and Williams were not being recruited to the big lacrosse schools is naive. This seems to be the trend amongst districts like Garden City, Manhasset and Cold Spring Harbor. I am sure girls from these schools play spead out on several of the Lacrosse clubs on Long Island like Yellow Jackets, Top Gun and Liberty. The web sites for all of these clubs show girls attending various colleges to play lacrosse. Liberty seems to have a large percentage of Ivy League attendees and commits.

what club sends more to Ivy's? Liberty

YJ has a 2018 commit to Florida!! Awesome
YJ clearly leads the way in recruiting. Heard many if 2018 already have visits set up. Next up 2018

As for IVY takes to long and they may as well take money to ND, Duke
Hopkins and UNC cheaper

Ivy's have the by far the largest endowments in the country and are in fact the cheapest schools to go to, unless you're very wealthy nobody pays the sticker price. The lack of athletic money available means nothing, they have an entire array of sports prgrams for both men and women that are full of athletes gettting academic and or need based money equall to and even surpassing athletic scholarships. The average student at Harvard pays under 20K/year via the giant endowment fund

Are you really this pathetic, Liberty is not really a travel club it's a Manhasset high school supplement and yes Manhasset sends a lot of kids to Ivy League schools. Why do you think that is?
