To be blunt, Crabs and a few other local clubs like VLC do shockingly close to nothing to get kids nominated or appointed.
That is a complete lie. The Crabs and VLC do a great job getting their players recruited. In the 2015 class, Crabs and VLC have a combined 18 kids committed to college. The Crabs 2016 team has 8 kids committed to college. Hate on them all you want, but you look like fool spreading such lies.
Watch Google Hangout on Schoolsports.com, they have a panel consisting of HS, club and college coaches addressing the recruiting issue. Consensus is HS coaches drive recruiting in hotbed areas (LI, Baltimore, NJ) and clubs tend to benefit smaller schools and less popular lacrosse regions like the south and west. Seems the best bet is a club run or coached by a HS coach like LI Express, Greene Turtle, Leading Edge or FCA. Crabs supplement but don't drive the recruiting effort
