It's worked for us, we mix talent up all the time and the girls stay away from cliques.


They are not treated differently. Where do you come up with this stuff? They have separate practices, each run by their own coaches. No one is disrespected, it's more like each team is getting its own individualized attention.

As for mixing the talent, say what? This isn't intramural lacrosse, some town team trying to appease the masses. This is competitive lacrosse. The girls on different teams are friendly, the girls within the teams are friendly.

What club are you affiliated with where all the talent is mixed across teams? I have never seen or heard of that, color me skeptical of your claim.
