Good game son, you scored 4 goals. Doesn’t it enter your head as you say that. Well my son is 10, he dominated 8 and 9 year olds.


It say a lot about lacrosse parents in general. I second that. I don't see the point of it, but the parents that allow this, easily justify their own actions. even the 1 year hold backs stand out from the majority of the on age kids, let alone a 2 year hold back.
