Lacrosse in MD = How not to run youth sports. Others are making this case perfectly. Destroy rec sports, charge way too much, hold kids back, call out kids by name/number, the most hilarious is the ZONE defense hater pretending to know what he is talking about but clearly showing he knows nothing about playing defense while admitting his kid does not play defense. Summary: Can we get a N.VA separate link? Before the MD parents start: Yes there are no elite VA teams at this age group just a bunch of closely matched AAA (A) teams with all on age kids. I would not even know how to hold a kid back. I do have a question: If it is done for only "academic" reasons prior to K, why is this only an issue for Elite teams? I will say the kids on these teams are great players and a high % will play D1 in college and work hard. The parents?? Not so much.
