Trust me put the faceoff Middie and the big lefty attack man on the other top team and THEY become the best team . sorry to burst any bubbles of the other kids but those 2 kids make everything work. The other kids are good no doubt but they can't carry it like the 2 stars can and thats a fact. Play without them and let's see how it goes and don't say they have them on their team cause the other kid plays on another team too
When faceoffs midfielder plays on his other team Crush does just fine, not missing a beat
The point is that Crush has the 3-4 best lacrosse players in the 2020 age group. Nobody is disparaging the rest of the team, they are all very good too and could make/contribute on any of the other top teams. Those 3-4 impact players aren't going anywhere and until other teams catch up in size/strength Crush will continue to dominate. After Crush there are 4-5 teams that can all play great youth lacrosse and probably could beat one another on any given day.
What do you mean about "catch up"? Aren't all the boys growing? Crush boys same size as boys on other teams. Won't they all grow at about the same rate? Obviously some will wind up bigger than others, but you don't have to be big to be a great lacrosse player!
Obviously not just size/strength but speed, quickness, agility, vision and balance all will come into play. Top players are all tremendous athletes in addition to lacrosse skills. Will the Crush kids become those types of athletes as they mature? Undoubtedly some, maybe most, will but some won't. And if other teams surpass them in athletic terms and continue to improve lacrosse skills and intelligence, Crush will not be as dominant. They are way ahead of the curve at this point. It will be interesting to see if they can stay ahead as the years progress.
They will stay on top by recruiting the top players. Most of the Crush players were cherry picked from other clubs, some are shared. If a kid is not cutting it or growing, they will be dropped to Titanium. That is the model.
