Program used to be great, but is quickly falling apart.

I’d love to hear about which teams your daughters play for and your opinion of your team so that we can all figure out where we should be placing our kids.


Can you elaborate why?


My daughter played for one of the above mentioned teams for a few years. We loved what they stood for (big on community service) and at the time, they fit our needs (local tournaments). One of the downsides of being on that team was that some of the players (or it could have been a result of the parents being busy, etc.) didn't make the same time commitment to being at practices. My daughter would often get in the car and tell me how few girls were there. That had an impact on her morale and it showed in the teams' performance on the field. My daughter's interest in lacrosse had changed from what it was 3 years prior, so we decided it might be worth looking into other teams.

This past summer our daughter decided to try out for another team that she had played, and lost to, in tournaments. She made the team and so far we've been very happy with how things have progressed for her. She's upbeat when returning from practices and that says a lot to me. We'll see how it goes this Spring/Summer with the tournaments.

Who does she play for now?


FLG

Flg is run by good guys... definitely not as helpful as other clubs with recruiting but a step up if you were previous on one of those other teams! Congrats on finding a spot elsewhere

In regards to FLG, so far we've been very happy with communication, training, coaching and her teammates (they've been very welcoming to her as a new player.) That's not to say we had any issues with our prior club. We liked the directors and coaches and we truly hope the best for the team and club and my daughter is still friends with a number of girls from the team.
