There were not many kids at all for the 2nd or 3rd grade tryouts. They will be lucky to field one team again this year just like last years disaster. You will have Combined 2nd and 3rd grade team enntering tournaments and getting beat up. The only difference is that last years team had a good goalie. As predicted on this forum a lot of the good 2nd graders did not return to tryouts because of Don G. Good thing 3rd grade express tryouts are next week. Also only about 17 kids for 4th grade team went and tried out. No real team for that grade level either. But at least Gatz is there. Do you see the common thing that's occurring on the younger teams. As usual the 2019 team was crazy over 60 kids. Everyone seems to want to make that green team to be the best on long island and maybe the country. Rumor has it the tryout was insane and kids were very good and mean. They all want to be on that team.
