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

Why are all the tryouts on the same dates....

Travel lacrosse is a business - the clubs don't operate to help each other, they compete, and they all are vying to sign kids up "first".

Curious if there are any coaching changes at 9d1, express, legacy or igloo for this age?

Word is O'Rielly at Express is stepping down from his 2026 and 2022 teams. Not confirmed though.

Prices sky rocket every year . It's getting crazy people.

Igloo A...5 coaches with 5 sons...

Disaster waiting to happen.

9d1 had 37 kids for this age. They having 2 teams? Seems light...

Anyone know the price tag for 91?

Still no prices and we are at tryouts already. I can't believe how dumb I am to pay for a tryout for a team that will not give me the cost!!

my guess is about $3800 because they're including winter practices, the fall program, 2 fall tournaments and a spring tournament - none of which was included last year.

Other programs exist. Why insist on going to 9D1 or express? Why be sheep? Why pay such huge prices for travel lacrosse. Gather up friends and find a team that fits your needs - location, amount of practices, location of tournaments, how many tournaments, when the season is over, winter practices, etc.

Empire and the Ducks haven't posted their prices either. I am guessing that the prices are going up a lot.

who are the coaches? I though it was Cromwell & Barone for this group
