Are there any teams on the North Fork or at least near Riverhead? My son wants to play travel for the first time but it seems like most of the teams are so far west.
Epic Jokers, run by John Amato , HC of Mattituck HS Lacrosse. He is a great guy and coach. If we weren't so far away my son would be playing for him.
Good program with some 2025 kids who could be playing for better teams (I assume geography keeps that from happening). We've played and see them at several local tournaments over the past 2-3 years.
Only thing I will warn you against is the trashy, awful parents and it's not just a few of them. They berate opposing players and coaches. Blame refs (they scream at them from horn to horn) when they lose and just act like pure trash. Literally the worst parents I've ever encountered in travel lacrosse. Even their sons tell them to stop during games but they don't. It has to be embarrassing. That may just be the 2025 group though. I don't know.
