ten years ago? would 2004 be the year that the group that just graduated was in 3rd grade and starting out? if so I only wish my town had a ruined program like that.




Ward Melville High School has had a great lacrosse program for the past 30 or 40 years. Please do not attempt to tie last years success to the 3Vlax youth lacrosse board.


true enough - but they had not won a county title in over ten years and according to the original post that is when the new youth board took over the youth program, and those kids, under the new board rose up and became the number one team in the nation - these are the facts not an opinion, so maybe these policies and back room dealings worked.


Ok..we'll give you that they won everything last year but let's give credit where credit is due. The talent and depth of the seniors last year was unmatchable. 3v and their changes had nothing to do with that so let's not overstate the obvious. Let's see if these amazing changes hold true in the next coming years, but for now here are the facts.

The original poster of this topic spoke of playing for elite travel teams in the summer. 3v does not allow any 3v travel player to play with an elite team....fact. 3v coaches do not get automatic bids to top showcase camps....fact. 3v program turns into the patriot elite program run by the high school coaches once you hit 9th grade...fact. Elite program, under the auspices of 3v run 2 or 3 teams in the summer, teams are mixed grades (not beneficial), teams have roster of 28+ (not beneficial), teams do not attend same tournaments and some tournaments are a waste of time and money (not beneficial), coaches do not respond to phone calls from college coaches (not beneficial)......these are all facts! The poster was simply implying that Elite travel teams will do a better job getting your sons to play at the next level than 3v and the patriot elite program will do....fact!
