Who are the 'Redshirts'? Where are they from?

Well according to their website, they won 3 championships and had one finalist and one semi-finalist at the CNC. That would be an amazing day if it were actually true. Considering they put the top teams in one playoff and the bottom 7/8 teams in another, claiming a championship by winning the playoff between the bottom 7/8 teams seems a little bit dishonest. The finalist they claim was also in the bottom playoff after going 0-3 in pool play.

And you wonder why YJ nation is hated? 7th grade girls feeling good about some nice legitimate wins and you are talking crap geesh. When all the YJ's make the All American LI team will they boast? Such 2 faced BS

You may be the biggest loser to post on here, why do you think its a YJ parent posting this . Most likely a rival MD club who was at the actual tournament they are talking about. You need to look in the mirror and see why you have such resentment of people and how many times your ignorance has caused you to lash out at people for no reason.

sounds like the resentment was directed at 7th grade girls who won a few games

If a club cannot post anything about the players they have sent on to major college programs or talk about their alumni - that's all they have. Unfortunately that is the current landscape - there are several new clubs popping up every year and they have to go for the wins in order to have something to talk about. Either that or cease to exist after 3 or so years. As a parent it is up to you to decide what you want for your child.

I understand that. That's why you see the lesser clubs play in lesser tournaments. Putting championships on your website is important to them, even if they won some meaningless tournament against bad teams. But posting championships when what you really won was the consolation bracket for the teams that finished in the bottom half? That's very dishonest. While parents do need to decide what they want, they should be given the facts in order to make that decision.

THEY ARE ALL MEANINGLESS

Any results from this weekend

All I remember about this weekend is my daughter complaining that she missed a sleepover. Days like today makes you question writing the check

Looks like Legacy tied TG Black and advanced to finals over them on goal differential. Not sure if they won the tourney. Must have been a satisfying day for the upstart Legacy program.

Check the website. Legacy lost to TG in pool play 9-8.

They must have corrected it recently, had it 9-9 a few hours ago. Almost...

Ladies, now next year u know to skip it. I'm a girls lax coach too. and a male. listen this summer lax is so the coaches can line their pockets. it means zero. tell your girls to practice with their sticks a little everyday and they'll be fine. no need for u or them to be miserable. when the lacrosse season ends let it end. let them be kids.

But I was told my 6th grader would fall behind if she didn't play and will be recruited by 9th grade if she did.

OMG.....the person who told you that is an idiot. no one is recruiting 6th and 9th graders. trust me please......let her enjoy her life. just make sure she practices a little each day with her stick. that's important. trust me when she's playing in high school if the scouts like her they'll come calling. I promise u. this lacrosse year round is becoming ridiculous. the scouts will find her. who the [lacrosse] recruits a 7th grader when she's could either plateau or just give the game up one day. and listen most importantly....u don't want to burn her out playing her year round. by the time she gets to high school she may be tired of the daily grind with lax and no break. please, do the right thing. I'm a coach and I've seen these girls come and go. the scouts will find them when it counts. my niece accepted a full scholarship to northwestern in lacrosse two years ago and growing up she played PAL. my brother didn't do any clinics or summer lax with her. she just practiced a little each day. played basketball during basketball season and that's that. this summer lax is total nonsense. it's expensive too.

Wow, your niece must be one heck of a player - getting a full athletic scholarship and all to Northwestern. For women's lacrosse. Amazing. I guess I'll talk my younger daughter out of trying out for a club team this fall. It's too late for the older one.

And she did not get noticed until her junior year? Wow, she must be amazing. Which high school did she play at in MD? Was she at McDonogh? She had to have been.
