BOTC recently ran a "What's Your View?" discussion thread covering Player Passes. In that thread, the overwhelming majority of posters suggested that a player pass system was required once and for all to provide for proper age-related governance of youth lacrosse.

As a result, BOTC took the discussion to Harry Jacobs, President of the Long Island Metro Chapter of US Lacrosse. Our exchange was frank, honest, and progressive. Mr. Jacobs clearly recognizes the problem and has provided BOTC with status updates on the progress being made. While some readers might see these updates as "inchstones" rather than "milestones" the point is that the youth lacrosse movement's voice is being heard.

Please read through the Q&A that follows. We thank Mr. Jacobs for his honest input and frank views.
