I thought that Igloo was all year round? No fall tournaments? That doesn't seem to make sense. Do any igloo teams play in the fall?

Are you seriously talking about 3rd graders. ????
Half these kids will stop playing before jr high.

Coaching is very important now, I would bet on them to be good.

If you're that curious it's all on their website. From the looks of it they will have practiced 30-40 times before their first tournament

Tournaments do not make better players- practice does. Ask anyone with older kids... you can spend all the money for all the hoopla and travel costs and in the end, the practices and coaching is what makes your kid grow. The rest is all for fun.

These kids are too young for you all to be bashing and rating them. Half cannot tie their own shoes with a double knot or read fluently. Instill hard work, dedication and your kid will be fine, even if they do not play travel right now or belong to a top team. Remember to always tell them grades are more important that goals in the net and to respect their parents, teachers and coaches. Hard work pays off and that is what will carry them into the future.

Yes by the look of it they practice once a week all year but getting 3-4 games in a tourney really helps with what you have to practice on in those 30 days. You might not get the outcome in the wins and losses (can lead to unhappy parents) but you get to see what you really have. Then you build on that.

Two tourneys in May and I'm sure a bunch of scrimmages. Should be more than fine by laxfest.

Tough not to agree. Cant really see any downside to playing fall tourneys

Looks like 30 to 32...then a spring opening. No need to hype the numbers.

Thx for the clarification and thx for counting for us. Hopefully you'll update us if they add more practices in the spring. You're pretty creepy and apparently have a lot of time on your hands. How much time do you spend looking at the websites for 91, express, igloo and empire?

And you are not creepy? I don't typically look at the websites. and you know what seems to be in each one. what a [lacrosse]!

Let's see what they do at Blatant...they are playing in the 2023 bracket in what most wound call a B team tourney.

And the Warriors will play up at Mustang. Looks like they're all going for early challenges. Good luck to those boys!

Good luck to all the boys this weekend...A teams, B teams, town teams, etc

a "B" team tournament according to who..you..Mr Anonymous please fill us in on your expert-detailed qualifications on how to rank any fall tournaments or even any tournament, - how about just letting all the kids just play a game.

Anyone know where the 2024 Ghost's are from? They are playing Blatant this weekend.

They're from the afterlife. Very difficult to play "d" against as they are not always visible. Their best player is a very friendly kid...his first name is Casper I think. The other kids love him so.

Looks like you get express instead, Casper was too friendly.

No 2024 Express team listed for Blatant...I wonder if they are even practicing considering all of the teams that Express entered.

is empire 2024 alive?

Alive and well- thanks for the concern. It was so nice of you to ask.

I would assume they were gonna make debut at Mustang if 2024 had a bracket

Well you know what they say about people that assume now don't you?

We will make our debut in the spring what is know as something called LACROSSE SEASON.

Have fun watching the 2025 play.

Will do.

Will the Geese be golden? Or will they be laying eggs? Will Empire be green with envy? Will 91 orange get juiced?

Ya gotta be innit to winnit!

Wolfpack. Period

I watched a little of them at Blatant...they rolled the 2023 Express B team and went 4-0 in the bracket. Great team.

Looks like they were the smart ones. None of the empire teams looked ready

There is no 2024 team in the country that can beat them. They will be playing up in the a brackets by next fall like bandits, smash

Hahaha! And you're basing this statement on what exactly? The couple of games that you've seen them play? Have you been down to Maryland? Florida? Have you seen their 8 year olds? Ridiculous statement.... They've played 6 teams, and most teams at that age are a joke. B teams are bad teams until 5th or 6th grade.

They have played in Maryland, PA and LI. No true 3rd grade team has beat them. They will be the best of 91. Better than crush. Neither of them were as dominant so quickly.

Fella you are out of your f'ing mind!!! 8 year old lacrosse.Did you keep your little guy home from school today to work on wall ball with him...Dont forget to yell at him and his teammates when they make a mistake on the field...Im sure you are one of those RED cup parents that live for tourmnments and stroke their kid like he is the next Lebron of lax. Take you kid and the rest of your family on a vacation,have fun with the family.you are going to go to tournaments for the next 9 years.GET A LIFE!!!!

Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people.

Nick Saban

Do you really think Nick was referring to 3rd graders when he said that?

LMAO- you guys are crazy!

It's universal and it's why my kid doesn't like playing with yours and why we would never get along.
