I was making 2 points: if you love the game and think it is good for kids, logically it would be better for there to be as much opportunity as possible. Yes, families might be able to scrimp and sacrifice, but at the end of the day it is reducing the number of lacrosse athletes and the impact of the game. There is no reason for the system to function this way. If people truly cared about expanding the game there would be more support for rec programs, public schools and recruitment from public schools. The girls game is not nearly as elitist. Point #2 is that people in the lacrosse world love to claim it is a pure meritocracy and the best athletes/players are the ones who will shine, get recruited, etc. If you are “good” you will be found. Please educate yourself about how the world works and the role of opportunity. Just be honest about the fact that Johnny gets recruited by Penn State because his dad played there and his uncle knows the coach, etc… |
