What clubs are these or rather what did they used to be?
True Severna Park looooooool
It's important to remember that like all lax clubs, True is all about income generation through offering "experiences." You pay for the "local" club and for the $500 gear kit, and then maybe you can pay an additional $200 to play on the "national" "state" and/or "regional" teams too if your kid can play.
True Baltimore: Generally a "Rec+" "Club" playing out of Harford County these days. They attempted to cannibalize Mason Dixon, Wolfpack, Fallston, Bel Air. Successfully cannibalized the Kelly Post "A/B" team this fall. Fair to say, the operation is universally lampooned.
True KP: Remaining Kelly Post teams bought/leased/whatever by True. Very competitive AAA team at this age group, kids have been together since Kindergarten
True Annapolis: True ate the Cutters. Excellent AAA team at this age group.
True DC: True ate East Side Lax.
True VA: New club, seems to be operating out of the unmowed field of some public HS in Loudon? Wouldn't be surprised to see them eat Tribe (Loudon Youth Rec Club). They have been around for a year and have not seen them notch any eye raising victories over even AA or AAA teams.
True MD: True state team made up of Baltimore, Kelly Post, and Annapolis players. Though really, they just play the True Annapolis kids.
True DMV: Supposedly a new regional team to show off / profit from players who are too good to play for True MD and not good enough to play for True National
True National: A cool roster for a touring national team you can get on but won't play unless your kid is 6'1" and from Illinois, or the fastest kid in Minnesota.
True Outlaws: Cool name but just a club in NC (Outlaws) that True bought last week.
Nice Rundown ! True is a money grab giving parents a dream to the top. Marketing overcomes its dismal results over the years...... Truly : ) remarkable.
