2-3 GC kids on Chaminade J V lacrosse team
2-4 GC kids on Chaminade Varisty lacrosse team that are juniors
3-5 GC KIDS on Chaminade Varisty lacrosse team that are seniors

And Garden City high school has always had great lacrosse program . And will continue to have strong lacrosse program.



One of the issues is that GC the youth organization and parents(politics) and the HS coaches(politics) buy into the "committed" idea at 3rd & 4th grade. How many kids develop after age 9? Right! But somehow the GC system has already culled the herd and determined who'll be the 24 next great players 7 years later. They do not develop the majority of "un-chosen" players early on in the process, thus loosing many of the kids. Then when it comes to going to HS they will loose 4-6 of the "committed" players to other schools.

The talent pool is in GC deep but they only focus on the few way too early.
