Pretty clear now that regular season is done that Crabs is still most dominant club in Maryland. Hawks #2 in wins. Say what you want about Crabs but they don't play this daddy ball, daddy's friends with Coach that most these other clubs seem to run their teams with.

Crabs is still the best club team around but the gap is narrowing quite a bit. Multiple teams are knocking at the door... No other club even close.
No, they just play the "let me field a team 1-2 years old than the other teams"' to win a youth lacrosse game.
Stop whining. No one on the 2022 or 2023 is born before spring of 2003/2004 for their grade. And the 2021s only have a few holdbacks. Come up with another excuse.
Only a few... ThIs is too funny! Not that you think the number is over estimated, but you say only a few - what-5/6 as if it's normal. Remember if any kid is worth their weight- they'd be playing up, not down.
If I was a parent of any holdback, I'd be worried if my team full of holdbacks was only beating other teams by 1 goal, losing or even in very competitive games with other on age teams. The holdbacks clearly can't "hold their own" even if they are 1-2 yrs older than their opponents. Remember parents, before you make a life changing decision for your kid, weigh the risks. Your kid may not be a game changer even on a younger team and in the long run may show better against kids his own age- at least the recruiters won't see him in evenly matched games or losing against younger kids. I'd think it's got to sting seeing younger kids recruited before your 1-2 yr older son. What happens if it doesn't pan out? Will it be worth it?
