The "Best" hidden 2024 Goalie, the phenom D1 [lacrosse] midfielders, nauseating ranking between touting WP vs. Taz, of all the years I have my boys playing on the 2024 board takes the cake. There is no other year message board that is this amusing. I have to guess that most 2024s are only children or the only boy. Or parents (can't just blame Dads anymore) are unrealistic or trying to live through there kids.

Even if you really felt your 5th grade child was the "best" goalie on Long Island what balls does it take to post that? Did it look good when you clicked "view post"?

I saw Syracuse announced their freshman recruiting class. 16 players! You think travel playing time is bad with 22 kids. Good luck with 3x that amount. Everyone on this board gets nuts about their kid playing in college. Focus on using the lax to get him into the best academic school possible. College lax goes by fast, especially with a roster of 60+

Igloo usually hides in the fall but I'm sure they will do a tourney

All clubs will wash each others back so all tourneys will be filled and everyone will make money, except the parents.

A lot of invitationals are happening this season. 2 best teams on LI get invited down to MD to play their 2 or 3 best teams. Then the MD teams come to LI for the same set up. It keeps the top teams sharp.

Could not agree more on the trash talking. However the point that was trying to get across, is that as the boys get older other teams will start to get better.There wont be only 1 or two teams that dominate.Other teams will become more competitive.It happens in every age group.

Until then... Like sand thru the hour glass. ...

Travel LAX is competitive and there are winners and losers. A lot of posts about everyone catching up and evening out. Good luck with your wait and you will see approach.
Get measured and develop.

Igloo? Most of the good kids LEFT Igloo for other A teams. They filled those spots with kids from B teams. Decent kids but not a A team. They will play in B brackets or easy tournaments, watch. They may win, but it will be B team competition, not A.

There are only two A teams in this grade and neither took an igloo kid. Who does your kid play for? Probably a B team like mine.

Realistically, the entire grade level is weak. To only have enough quality players to make 2 highly competitive teams is a shame. Look at 2023 and 2022. There are WAY more top level teams. Even for Big Orange to only have one team speaks volumes of how down a year it is.

In most cases, yes, but not on this one. My son is on one of them. The age group is mediocre. Can you explain to me how it isn't??

But you are acting like that 2nd tier of teams is mediocre, when they are actually solid. Express 2x, Outlaws, Igloo, are all solid teams and there are some really solid town teams at this age too. Commack, BBP, ESM, RVC, etc. Sure Taz and WP are the cream of the crop but there are plenty of of good teams at this age. There has been some really competitive games the last few years between teams not named WP and Taz. Call them B teams if you like but it's good solid lacrosse for a bunch of 10 year olds.

Agree. WP has the BBP and Commack kids playing on the team. Taz is also made up of some solid PAL kids also. Impressive 10 yr old lax all around

Not true at all, unless you are a mommy from Manhasset and thought your little crew were the top kids. All of their key starters are back and they upgraded every position through tryouts.
