Lax ain’t a poor man’s game. The kids that Malvern want don’t need financial aide. They want the ego stroke of getting recruited to a top tier school more than the money. Lax parents are willing to pay up for anything. See national teams and club ball as examples
Contrary to what you say Malvern, Haverford & EA all want kids who need aide. Maybe not want them, but they will provide the aide to get kids who will help them win. The magnitude of the aide will depend on the wealth of the parents.
