Does not make sense and is not true. NLF is an effort by the big influential clubs to control the youth lacrosse recruiting process and make as much money as possible. They want you to believe that your child won't get recruited unless he plays for one of the NLF clubs. If there is a smaller program with a talented team, they will exclude them from their events in hopes that some parents will panic and move their sons to one of the NLF teams.
NLF members have teams playing at every grade level in each of their events. Does Igloo have older teams? Seems like that might be important, no? Parents have been moving from Igloo when their kids hit recruitment age long before NLF.
