Great program going into its second year. Last year the coaches were top notch, and really dedicated to teaching their players the right way to play the game. Looking forward to another successful season.

Over the years my son has played for some of the top clubs on Long Island and the Checkmate Sharks is over all the best one he has played with. The coaches are extremely dedicated, knowledgeable and experienced. The boys started practicing together twice a week in the early spring which continued until the week of our last tournament, which is a huge plus many teams start way too late to be competitive early in the summer season. The price is also very fair and competitive with no hidden or unexpected costs along the way. This is really a top notch program that will not disappoint.

Are the teams made of mostly GC kids or are they from all over the island. Thanks for the info and feedback. We ran into some of the younger teams this past summer at LI Lax Fest and they seemed well coached.

In its first year, this club really shined. Even won a tourney or two...and the coaches are classy, NOT SCREAMERS, with good college contacts. The Practices are held at Adelphi...great, great facilities. The parents don't over do it with over the top tailgates and know it all attitudes. A great program...from a parent who has seen quite a few clubs.

I realize that a lot of the parents on these boards say that their programs coaches are great, dedicated, teach the right way, etc., but it is true for the Checkmate Sharks. In fact, after the first year, many of the individual teams parents requested to the Directors to have their coaches move up to the next age level with their kids. They thought so much off the job that their coaches did that they wanted it to continue.

These people must not have been involved with the 2020 team. I know parents who had kids on that team. They struggled and had a paid coach that didn't want to be there.

I was at the JDRF tournament and saw the 2020 Sharks team play at Burns Park. They had trouble getting the ball to their offensive side of the field against a town team. It was a good town team, but the Sharks were down by double digits at half.
