Youth Sports should not be based on what college D 1 coaches are looking for.
Youth sports are for kids to learn how to compete, work with teammates, win with dignity, and lose with respect. Kids playing club lacrosse at the youth levels, elementary school and middle school should not be playing against older kids.
