Both great experiences for the players... Warrior offers great gear, tournament and a few team practices. Overall for a 1st year event they did a good job and will probably be even better this year. The NLC for the 1st 2 days offers Academy type of [ChillLaxin]/ clinic format but unlike most camps/ clinics the kids are for the most part all talented. The last 2 days the regions compete against each other. Warrior has 2 LI teams (North&South) now so making it might be easier and the NLC is a combo team (24&25). I'm assuming the 25's will have to really standout but there is a bunch of talent in this group so they should do well. IMO you can't lose if your son makes either event. Good luck!
