heard a rumor that Garden City is going to keep their boys from playing club lacrosse...is there any validity to that rumor? I saw so many great town teams this year, like Manhasset, that could clearly hang against the club pool at tournaments. if its true then other towns may need to get on the bandwagon. there is a reason that GC is top of the high school food chain.
Garden City has one of the best HS Programs in the country.
I am not sure that changing how they do things at the youth level is going to make them any better.
Many of their best players over the last several years have played on club teams in the summer. Those kids helped make up very good GC High School Teams.
If there is a trend that restricts players and pressures them into only playing with the kids in their Town we will see a decline in the level of talent on Long Island.
Can someone please identify a sport in which the best players in the world are consistently developed by playing and training with "only" the players who live in their Town.
As the sport continues to grow the level of play will only increase and if kids are limited they will not reach their full potential.
