US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2020- 9th Grade Fall 2016/Summer 2017

Main Event is June 10th. That's a pretty big tourney. Then Big 4.

Ask yourself this question how would it look to the college coaches if kids didn't play

Can't wait to see edge play team 91 this summer

Has Old has Edge gotten over the winter? Any 17 or 18 year olds playing 2020 this summer? Surely the Crabs will have a few.

Edge doesn't do that get your facts straight before you try to stir the pot.... this discussion has long been settled same age relax

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Sounds like someone is scared they're gunna lose. Yes, it's coming!

Not true for Crabs. Lots of private school kids, mostly late 15's and early 16's. No drivers yet, almost, nice try!

Anyone know of a 2020 club team looking for a GK?

where?

That's exactly what was said last year, and what happened ?

Preferably a Nassau County-based team.

Crabs should be ashamed of themselves - full of 2019 players and a 2018 and still can't beat Crush.

Funny how the Crabs teams don't seem to get good until the 8th grade - I wonder why....

Umm....They did beat Crush

You should focus on why you never seemed good.

Edge has basically been the same group of kids since 2013

thats's the line up in Big 4 and it's a single game elimination event

they played once last year Crush 9 Edge 8. Was a good game.

Your club's track record indicates otherwise. Bloated Crab will add in a few 2019 and 2018 players that haven't committed yet. It's what you do!

Not sure how/why FCA and Looney's get passes from all of the holdback whiners, as all of those teams are about 80% prefirst and extra year kids. I guess success has many enemies.

No passes. All competitive MD, Pa, Mass and Canadian teams play down. But MD invented it. Back in the days when all your teams were U-11 U-13 etc. Always played down in a lower bracket at grade based tournaments. Could never win on age, and still can't to this day. Nowadays all your teams are grade based, so you just have older kids. Like you say 80% pre first, hold back or double holdback. Still can't win on age and never will. Same with Under Armour HS teams. Pa and MD teams loaded with 19 and soon to be 20 year olds. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't matter when they're HS.... Especially when all the 19 and 20 year olds are your team right? Heard that same stupid story over and over. So if it doesn't matter put an age qualifier in. We'll see how much it doesn't matter. Same ole story, actually kind of sad and funny at the same time. No big deal, the number of D1 recruits from MD continues to plummet.

That's complete speculation on your part. There is no proof. Birth dates are not provided on college rosters so where are you getting your facts?

What is fat Crab gonna do when youth based lacrosse goes age based? Create the NLF, declare himself elite and play amongst his pals - that what. Crabs 2020 has multiple 16 year olds on it and 1 17 year old. Deny it all you want. It's a fact.

I actually know the ages of one of those teams. 6 of 24 does not equal 80%. BTW equal # of kids born in summer of 02. There are plenty of kids that will play this summer as 16 yr olds and feel free to complain about that if it makes you feel better. But the 17/18 2020 is bs

Gilman/Crabs middie born 3/2000 - that makes him 17 in the 9th grade. MD state records don't lie.

HHH is horrible, they won't win a game

How is that possible? My kid is born in Oct 2000 and is finishing 11th grade. No way.

my son was born 10/02 and is in 9th grade. and always plays on 2019 teams

Same ole story, that's how it's possible.

Who cares when your kid was born? Can he play? That's all anyone cares about. The rest is whining

since you've read it on the internet it must be true right?

[quote=Anonymous]Who cares when your kid was born? Can he play? That's all anyone cares about. The rest is whining

AMEN!

Especially when he's two years older than the other kids.... If he can't play with them, who can he play with? If he can't standout then, it's time for crying, not whining. But that's why you did it, cause little Buffy too afraid to play with kids his age. Mommy made it all better and put him with the little kids... Those other kids were too big and strong for little Buffy. Hahahahaha. Whine about that helicopter parent. When he finally graduates college at "24" and gets a job, (I mean you find him a job) how will he handle reporting to his new 24 year old boss that's been in the workplace for 3 years already. How will Mommy save him from that? Maybe Mommy can take him to her job and he can hide behind her skirt.

No whining here leg. Just a statement of fact. Sorry about your hold back and how you have corrupted him. Just remember you won't always be there to fix things for him but he'll be looking for you.

So what? Who gives a $hit! Really, go tell someone who gives a rats [lacrosse] about your kid. Stand in front of the mirror and tell yourself, at least that guy cares, no one else does [lacrosse]hat

I wrote the post and my kid is a smaller on age boy. He knew the deal and stepped up....hit the gym/practice. Guess what? 1-2 years older=No problem, bring it on! Stop crying and figure it out!

So what year are birth year are true 2020's?

Born after 12/1/01 for LI
