Agree. Girls hit that massive growth and development spurt right around this age. It is likely the biggest difference you can find as any and all teams pass through the age. In a couple years the drastic difference in physicality fades away. In any event, there is no way in [lacrosse] these stupid comments are coming from someone on either 2020 or 2021 blue. No doubt from outside organization or someone feeling slighted on a lower team.

Well you remind me of the coward that keeps mentioning WH . You and that guy if you are not actually the same person are such a bunch of cowards that you would not even think about approaching any of these people you despise so much because as already stated your a coward . Now go back to your crumbling TG team .

Really???
How about your fellow "pathetic" YJ (yes from the north fork) telling someone their wife is cheating on them. Huh? Then your West Hampton YJ chiming in for no reason.
To top it off they are anonymous like you are calling others a coward. What's your name? What's their names? Tell us you freaking cowards! That's what I thought. You got nothing. You YJ parents on here are all loud mouth punks with "pathetic" points of view. Now go back to your bottle of wine and drown your sorrows.

Do

I know of at least two people that keep posting WH with the sole purpose of getting under your skin and they both do it with no knowledge of who you are.

Well that is kind of the point , you and your boyfriend seem to believe you know who these people are but they do not seem to know anything about you. If you know who they are then they are no longer anonymous to you so you and your boyfriend must be some pathetic cowards in that you are too afraid to confront them in person .Ball is in you and your boyfriends court to stop the anonymous cowardly posting, you could just approach these gents , lol, like that is going to happen.

To post such ridiculous crap under the cloak of anonymity is one thing, somebody actually knows this person? How utterly embarrassing. Complete loser.

Said the anonymous poster... You're all embarrassing yourselves. Go back and re-read some of your posts and thing about whether you would want your kids, or your parents, or your friends to know you wrote them. I doubt it.

So says Anonymous. Coward too?

After review I have determined that it has gone far enough. Move on to another topic.

AMEN! How about stepping up and monitoring this crap from the get go. This is absolutely pathetic! This whole site is a disgrace and YOU (monitor) are equally responsible as the uneducated, classless people who post for allowing it! Step up and change it!

YJ home page states there are "Open spots" available for both the 2017 and 2019 teams.
Any takers??

4 2018's on a 2017 roster? For high school ages, have only seen goalies play up.

Had to fill out that 4th team roster - otherwise they would have lost tuition payments for the sixteen 2017's.

If you don't like the way the sites run, don't come here.

Its funny how you throw stones and attack the monitors. We do our best. Sorry if its not up to your standards. I can only speak for myself but I am trying to keep a tighter rein on things to prevent BS. I have spoken to HOP and he feels the same.

The standards for this website are what they are. Kids to not come here and post. It is the parents. Do not apologize to him. We are not censors. We (monitors) are not making these posts. He is the one who made the posts he is complaining about. Those posts were made by "anonymous"

Can you actually compete at legit tournaments with mixed age HS teams? Thought they didn't allow it with the exception of goalies.

A that age it doesn't matter who wins its mostly showcase tournaments.

At what age does it matter?

I thought you had to play in the graduating year of the oldest girls on your team.

I see you are now monitoring the posts directed at you (the monitor). Funny how when you see the content is about you, it strikes a chord I guess and you don't want people to see the recommendations. (I can say with certainty since you didn't post my last two posts challenging you to step up and do something to protect these girls) Please consider a mandatory login. You know this is is a bunch of lunatic parents who cause havoc and it spills onto the kids. It would be nice to see someone looking out for them. Again, we can't do anything about it and my last few posts you didn't even put up.

They mean can you even play. At some tournaments you are not allowed to even step on the field if your HS team is mixed grad years

CR has a piece of the action for every tournament she enters...What do you think?

its a commission or finders fee

DELETED...This poster has been eliminated.

get a life..add something of value or please be a fool on someone else's time. Parents want quality information here.

Why does YJ put the directors win/loss record on her bio? Who cares? Other club teams put the director/coaches bio or resume' on their pages, but I can't seem to find any other that actually shows the win/loss record. Interesting.

Are these tournament won/loss records? If so, only YJ would actually keep those records.

The site doesn't say. It just shows the numbers, with her bio listed below.

Shouldn't it be about .500 since the YJ teams always play each other?

Maybe Chris Robinson should put 112-0 on his bio

CR is too classy to do that.

CR and classy should never be used in the same sentence.

the first thing you see when you open her directors bio is her won-loss record

Said no one ever!

That statement is a great illustration of an oxymoron. They use this example in all English classes at Northport High School.

Posted in another thread, but really is on point:Much of the vitrol comes from parents here on Long Island because it is sickening to see some of these YJ parents walk their child in on a pedestal to a PAL or HS event and act like they are the cat's meow all because they think their kid is better than everyone else because their kid is an "Elite" Yellow Jacket (and yes some girls are very good, but no more than 1 in 12 yellow jackets can say they are good, especially when there are 6-10 good girls on a blue team and then 4-6 other teams in that age group of average to poor players). But everyone regardless of who they are, think they are elite because they pay their fee and get a jacket that says elite on it.

Then you have the coaches of PAL who kids have been playing YJ since 3rd grade and are on a blue team as a legacy or political favor (in 5th or 6th grade because once they get to HS they usually get dropped from those teams to make way for Northport girls or other HS girls connected to the directors) (we will keep your kid up here if you keep sending more kids for our 3rd 4th 5th and 6th teams. These guys think their sh*t don't stink and walk around like they are the foremost expert on Lacrosse and you should be priveldged to talk to them or have your daughter on the same field as them (of course everything is built around showcasing their daughter on the field too). These guys you want to just punch in the face.

The problem with YJ parents is that they think that they are Long Island Lacrosse and there is no room for anyone else. They have bought into that even is your daughter is on the 2nd or 3rd team (or4th or5th) they are elite and better than any other clubs 1st team girls.

That is why you are hated and why other parents can't stand you. Dispute it all you want (and there are some rational parents in YJ, but you are over-shadowed by the other (which unfortunately rational YJ parents are out numbered in YJ land).

I was referring to Chris Robinson (CR), not CR-R. Sorry for the confusion.

Who is Chris Robinson

Director of M&D, in Maryland. Refer to the post about 9 spots above.
