With the strength of girls lax on LI I can't believe a school district couldn't field a team on their own.


At our HS we could barely field two teams, the travel crazies have drivUuen out any athletic fringe kids. We now have a really skilled 8 or so travel girls and the bottom 8 are pretty dreadful. Since everyone has quit they are looking to call up 7th and 8th graders which feeds into the crazy travel parents. Its a problem. 7th and 8th graders shouldn't be playing varsity just because of a body need. And you can't be competitive unless you are running subs in and out.[/quote

The varsity programs will become direct reflections of the town youth programs. If the youth program can keep as many athletes playing for as long as possible .
