Most clubs also don't fold their rising Junior and Sophomore teams. I've never heard of a club throwing in the towel for teams that old. Even if the teams weren't good, they completely abandoned those kids.
did Looney's fold the teams or did they not have enough kids coming out for the teams?
18 kids left the Looneys 2018 team. What was the club supposed to do? The kids weren't abandoned. They left.
Obviously, it's an issue, but don't make it out to be something it isn't. I'm not a fan of the club, but this criticism is unfair.
And nobody new is interested in the club? What about the 2017s?
And if 18 guys leave, what does it say about the club?
It says that those years never recovered from losing coaches and players to FCA. That was unfortunate for Looney's then and now. HS club is very expensive because of the cost of individual registration in recruiting tournaments. Some kids don't make their HS teams or realize they don't want to play college lax. So the expense and time commitment is unnecessary and therefore less players play club. The ones that wanted to play found a home.
Youth teams are mix of solid to very good. Like most clubs some years stronger than others.
