Inflation is at 8.5% which means that the mark up for this great sporting extravaganza is in the neighborhood of 40%+. Think about that as you hemorrhage money to travel to play the same competition you would most likely see in your region. Lacrosse will always be a hobby. Cricket gets more airtime on ESPN and every major college is looking to drop it. Truth. Lacrosse is a net negative except for folks like yourselves on this thread that think that it matters. Game on I say. Keep the gravy train flowing and the dreams high. They go nowhere fast.
This has been true forever.

We know it’s a hobby. And it’s one that us and our kids love.

People aren’t just doing this with visions of college scholarships or careers.Lots of us enjoy coaching for the friendships and competition and believe it or not, the kids play to have fun and compete with friends too.

Shocker!!!
