This whole warrior thing especially for this grade level - 2024 - is a complete joke....means absolutely nothing at this age and given its the 1st year of this showcase I think they will have a hard time even fielding a competitive 8th grade team, yet alone a 2024 team (maybe they do but competition from other regions may not be great)....don't feel like you are pressured or missing out on something here...for the tryout fee of $185 and tuition of $695 in the the middle of the Summer is crazy. I have been involved in lax and coaching my kids for the last 10+ yrs and still have another 10-15 yrs left with my younger sons. My one son plays on one of the top 2024 teams (one that is always mentioned here on this thread) and I wouldn't even waste my time. Save the money, go away on vacation and enjoy your time with your kids as it goes by fast.
