PAL has had an A division for 5th and 6th grades for the past few years. It provides excellent competition for the top town teams.
which PAL Suffolk or Nassau? What teams?
Nassau PAL - In no particular order and probably missing a few - Manhasset, GC, Farmingdale, CSH, Northport, Port Washington, West Islip, Massapequa, Harborfields, Wantagh, Syosset...
Would love to see 3V and Smithtown join as well.
I know most of the towns listed have more than one team per age and usually try to split teams equal skills wise. Are you saying 5th grade is the age PAL/towns stop this and combine all their top players on one team?
Yes
If the guy who runs your town's PAL lacrosse program allows it.
Doesn’t this dilute the talent level and competition in all the lower brackets. Small towns with only one team probably will not be able to go in the A bracket anymore and will not have completion in lower bracket. This format sucks for them.
