Also, if you were watching last night you say both sideline having a great time rooting for their teams whether they got in the game or not...
WM will have a very strong team when those kids are in 11th and 12th grades...


I don't recall anyone saying it was not a great game to watch.

Ward Melville always has a very strong team so to say they will be strong when this group gets there is a bit silly. (of course they will be good)

This is middle school ball, not high school.

The thread is titled "Bypassing Middle School Lax for Club Team".

The original post regarding "Ward Melville" was intended to imply that Middle School lax is as good as or better than "Club Lax".

At the Top Club "A" Teams it is not.

For a kid who does not get in the games or can't make the towns "A" tournament team maybe a club "B" team is not such a bad idea.

The town "A" teams can't compete with the Top Club "A" Teams.

My kid plays middle school lax so i do not think kids should not play for their school but the original post was foolish.

I think the poster has a problem with club teams.
