ILD, no team can live up to the lofty standards your daughter and her teammates have established. Our girls are doomed to careers off the field and will be forced to buy expensive tickets to watch your daughter and her friends play in stadiums full of crossed women's lacrosse fans.

Woe is us. And we apologize to you, your daughter, and her teammates for not putting on a better show. Slay us.


Why pay thousands and thousands of dollars for your daughter to play club lacrosse so that you can say she does? Get on the wall or save your money.


You are one of those parents that are not going to understand until it's too late, if you ever understand at all. Dolt.


Please enlighten me on the benefits of shelling out $2k per year for your daughter to play lacrosse when she can't catch and throw in 8th grade. When club lacrosse started it was not meant to be all-inclusive. But that is the society we live in today. Has to be a place for everyone and the one's that benefit are the club owners. If they can convince 25 parents that paying $2k per year to play on a "B" level club team is good for their family, then who is the dolt? Rec/Town lacrosse costs $125-200 per year. The pressure is on the parents to say little Susie plays club. The girls are in 8th grade. Parents need to be realistic about their children's abilities. If it's no big deal to throw away $2k per year, then good for you. But I know many families that don't necessarily have that sitting around.


Hundreds of college lacrosse programs and your daughter and her friends are taking all the spots. Sucks for the rest of us.

Dolt, indeed.


And you're a dolt if you think that there are so many spots available. Many of the schools aren't fully funded for girls lacrosse. And even if they are, many of the lesser schools only sign 4 or 5 girls every year. There are around 500 girls offered any sort of scholarship money every year for lacrosse. There are 100 girls playing for YJ 2020 alone. There are over 80,000 girls playing high school lacrosse now. If you think there is a spot for everyone, do the math. My point is that families are spending tens of thousands of dollars for their daughters to play club lacrosse. Money that could be saved to pay for college. The one's getting rich and laughing all the way to the bank are the club owners. By 8th grade if you are on a team that is losing 12-0 or 14-1 isn't it time to have a serious discussion about what are you trying to get from the 10-20K you are going to spend for her to play club for the next 5 years? Depending on the school you are talking about almost a full year of college.
