US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums MID-ATLANTIC LACROSSE MARYLAND FORUM Girls 2021

Good for Skywalkers!!! They are a very well coached team. Plus their players really work as hard or harder than anybody. Finally, they have team chemistry that is second to none.

This is just the beginning, the future is bright for these girls.

Guess Stars is better coached, works harder and has better chemistry than Skywalkers. Future is bright for those girls.

SW has 6 or 7 new players and relatively new coach who took over late last season (he knows lacrosse). They are still gelling as a team and should be much improved this summer. I like the apparent parity at this age group and believe it is beneficial for all players.

The SW coach knows lacrosse. The new players are extremely athletic but will take time to work in with the existing players. All the problems regarding clears, rides, half field sets can be resolved with coaching and time, especially when you have the athletes. I expect the big four or five clubs to remain on top and remain competitive with each other.

I don't have a daughter in the 2021 division or on SKW, but watched 2021 play Monster last Sunday. They looked good with 6 or 7 new players, which means they will look even better by spring. McLaughlin knows what he is doing with that club.

The Hero's goalie always gives M&D problem. But they never keep her in the hole game. The two goalies from these team M&D and Hero's have the best two goalies in the age group. It's all way fun to watch them play each other.

Yikes. I don't even know where to begin with this. I thought Howard County had good schools.

Obviously, their's a whole in the edgucation.

Wow ! ! ! Now it's a bit more obvious for the rest of us, why MD kids need to get scholarships in order to get into college.

Grammar put downs are soooo lame

This isn't rec lacrosse every one doesn't get equal playing time. That's the problems these day's parents think just because their child made a team and they paid the dues that it guarantee playing time. Club sport in general there is no guarantee. Best players should be in the game. Don't know the situation with the these team but I have two boy that play and I have seen angry parents because their child doesn't play that much.

Wow! ^ Yup, right there exhibit one in selfishness and short-sightedness. Okay, Mr or Mrs It's all about my kid, when supposed second string goalie does not get the playing time that the parents who paid were expecting? Well, as you are probably saying - "there are plenty of other clubs out there". And chances are that is what they will do. But, then, if you say - "fine - there are plenty of goalies out there." And that's where your selfishness and short-sightedness will get the better of you. Bro, lacrosse is a very small community - word will get out very quickly about the treatment of the "backup goalie" on said team and the 'dbag goalie dad'. And then you will have to settle for desperate 3rd tier talent. And you say "so what, they are the backup". Then, what happens if God forbid your auspicious 'golden cow' of a starting goalie should get injured? Who do you turn to? Or worse case scenario - nobody wants to pay that money and do that travelling to sit around and watch their daughter work on her tan on the sidelines. For field players - playing time balance can be finagled with and not be so obvious. We all know goalie parents are a little on the excessive side - its very obvious to them when the rotation is only a bit uneven.

Well, you nailed this one.

Well, you nailed this one.

If you are referring to M&D's goalie being injured, no goalies were run off the team. The backup wanted to start somewhere. She played a lot for M&D.

How do you know why each of those goalies have left that team? Did you interview each of the goalies or just their parents?

Well, I sure would not want to limit my 8th grader's educational opportunities (or 11th grader) to attendance at a large public university. But, to each their own. Congratulations.

hopefully the NCAA put an end to this nonsense with the April vote.
