It's the start of the Fall 2017/Summer 2018 season. Use this thread for your posts regarding this age group

yes it seems like every time true blue loses there is some kind of excuse, and its funny how they have all these new great players already on the team a day after tryouts.

Anyone going to the outlaws tryout tonight? Can anyone share any insight into either team?

Maybe the coaches reached out to the players and offered them a spot, Possibility!!!!!!!!!!!

While possible, and there may be some preliminary contacts, especially for a new very talented player, I think TB is waiting until their last tryout day, which is next Monday, to form their teams for most ages. There are some notable exceptions to that, but I don't think the 2023 teams fall into that category.

No one waits until the last tryout to form a team. You risk a chance of losing players or not getting the ones you want. Everyone wants commitments immediately with a down payment. Thats why everyone is having tryouts earlier this year. Don't believe the clubs telling you that they want everyone to get it out of the way so you can enjoy your summer. Next year tryouts will be in the beginning of July, wait and see. They get earlier every year.

TB top 3 next year, will compete with anyone even with top MD teams.

Both Outlaw teams were talented last year. Combining the select and gold. Should be a very good showing at the tryout from what I have heard.

Great coaches who are committed to the boys development and want to compete but not at all costs. Don't listen to any noise about years past and lack of commitment from the coaches. This past year dispelled that notion as the team practiced consistently and regularly. Team will get better as the kids get older / stronger. They will look to narrow the gap between themselves and the top tier teams. There are opportunities on the team if your son is athletic and / or has good skills and coachable.

"Not sure what the hang up is with TB they are a solid team. Someone on here keeps posting they make excuses when they lose I don't think they do. Every single person on here complains when they lose they all say the other team had holdbacks that's the common excuse. I get it you don't like TB for whatever reason your entitled to your opinion. There a good team well coached and each year they get better not sure where all the animosity comes from."

My guess is because TB beats the $3k/year B teams and has been gaining ground on the A teams.

The above post is not a TB parent, but with a few new additions to Panthers, we'll be very good!

Nice troll attempt. Slow day at the sausage factory?

See you next year at Crabs Young Guns!!!! Bahahahaha

Some Merrick PAL dad stirring the pot..thats all that is..No TB parent believes that nonsense..

Or because TB dads are on here talking smack non stop. People need to her over themselves.
