Anyone try that newer box program Island Box? was curious how it was
Plain and simple. It stunk IMHO
The coaches are awesome but they take anyone who's check clears, and to ask people to spend extra cash on away travel tournaments with kids that are sub par ends up with the better kids not commiting. They need to split into a and b teams or it will never keep the better players dedicated. NO GRAY HELMETS!!!!
Coaches were awesome???? Langtry formed this saying he would be coaching. Then went MIA for the whole main box season. And left a buddy of his running it. Langtry only showed back up after his buddy went crazy at a tournament screaming at refs and getting technicals. And they forfeited championship game. Only then did Langtry appear again.
Coach Kat for 2024 was great, Langtry as well, he had some personal issues but when there was great and had kids playing well. the 2025 age group has way more issues then worrying about the attendance of a winter box league coach
I think all were very considerate of the personal issues of Langtry. But after all these were issues that started way back to the beginning of the school year if not longer. When starting this program, he should have had a better back up plan than his friend Coach Tony who was just a PAL coach. After all thats not what people bought into. And that tournament was 2 teams. A 2025 team and a mixed age group team of 2024s with a few 2025s. And its wasnt the kids fault for either age what happened at the tournanent. It was Coach Tony pulling players from one team to another to the point that kids were throwing up in the bathroom. Then screaming at the refs getting technical fouls. And then walking out at the end forfeiting the final championship game for the 2024 team. There is no excuse for that.
Wow. Sounds like a trainwreck. I heard about this club last winter and was going to consider it this winter. If this is even remotely true, will most likely stay away.
