How come Elevate didn't send a team to the U15 Nationals? I see Liberty, YJ, TG, fl$? No Elevate?
Probably because they would have to play some competitive teams. Elevate avoids playing top teams whenever they can. That is why they spend so much time in New England at places like NEYLAT, I mean what a waste of time and money that tournament is.
I think Elevate goes to the tournaments that are the right fit for them. Their 2019-2024 teams should not be playing at top tournaments against top teams as they would be getting crushed on a regular basis. Going to New England allows them to play more teams at their level. We saw what happened at IL this weekend with their 2019s and then we saw what happened at Hofstra with their younger teams this weekend. They had their hands full with teams like Bengals, Icon, Igloo, Wave, etc. They don't need to be playing teams like YJ and others at these top tournaments.
Comments like this are what is wrong with everyone on this site....'teams like Bengals, Icon, Igloo, Wave, etc'
There is nothing wrong with any of these teams. Teams exist to offer girls the chance to play lacrosse throughout the summer and continue to improve their game.
And there is absolutely nothing wrong with Elevate choosing to play at NE tournaments, or other tournaments that fit their level of play. It is actually the responsible thing to do.....What team enjoys going 0 for the weekend? Would it make the girls feel better that it was against YJ or TG or Heroes? No!!
