Saw some very wacko parents this past weekend at under armor on Sunday.
Doesn't take much to figure out why the kids act like they do when the parents are crazier.
What age Hawks dad was acting up? This is an old post from 5/24. What did the guy do?

Tryouts are starting in a month for some clubs. Sign up now.

Would you mind adding the average annual cost to these teams? That would be interesting. The cost or teams is typically $1000 to $2000 depending on the number of tournaments and leagues they do. 2 leagues and 5 tournaments are $2000. 1 league and 3 tournaments are $1000. Some clubs will charge the $1000 initially then nickel and dime you on additional tournaments, gear, skill sessions, etc. - not necessarily bad if you know that going into it. The number 1 priority is finding the right coach because they vary hugely club to club and even age to age within clubs. Many clubs don't publish the costs up front because they have different costs for different players. Some of the better kids receive discount "scholarships". Other clubs just prefer to hit you will the bill after your kid is so excited he made the team, that you can't tell him no.

Looks like the Lax World Club team has the jump on tryouts - 8/1 start!
Actually Redshirts has theirs earlier on 7/22, but they are only for the younger 2024-2027 kids
10 Others start 8/5 - 8/11
12 Others start 8/12 - 8/18
The summer vacation window keeps getting smaller and smaller every year.

The Redshirts have Myles Jones coming to their tryouts on 7/30 at UMBC. That's pretty cool. They also said they were the US branch of the Edge Canada club who is usually really good. I'd never heard that. It's just for the younger kids though 2024-2027.

The coolest thing about the lax world club LWLC tryouts starting on 8/1 is that they are at historic Norris field where the best players played for Mt Washington Tavern after college prior to the MLL coming along.

That's cool unless you've actually been to Norris field lately. That's really the best place they could get to host tryouts? With the rain today they will still be muddy and soggy come tryouts

Also, Redshirts has absolutely zero affiliation with Edge Canada. Just more lies by George. Buyer beware

Hawks dad kept yelling stuff like let's go 11 year olds, and at least our kids are only 11, every time the Madlax middie would take a FO. Really uncool, especially since the Madlax kid is 11 just like everyone else. Probably made the Madlax kid just play harder. The kid is tough as nails and used to it by now.

You're confusing Hawks dad with Millon. Millon was the one yelling at the Madlax 2024 kids and telling his kids to break their arms.

Right after that, the kid scored, and Millon told the kid he wouldn't make it at the next level. Too funny.

I have no problem with a parent or anyone else calling out a holdback on the field. Crabs, FCA and Looneys are stacked with holdbacks - they should be called out for their cheating ways.

You have no problem with people yelling insults at kids from the stands? And you're going to make these insults based on how a kid looks and your sideshow carnival ability to judge age while keeping in mind kids hit puberty at drastically different times? And then decide that even if the kid was born prior to 9/1 but is not cheating according to the rules of the league and the kid is just playing where the organization and league say he should play that you as the almighty judge decide he is cheating? Wasn't at this game or associated with the teams, but you are what is wrong with all youth sports today, not a kid that might be a few months older.

As a spectator, you do not engage negatively with players, coaches, referees, period. Even if you are enough of an idiot to do so, using your example, you would be yelling at a kid because you don't like a league rule, not because of anything the kid did. Calling out clubs or kids for cheating, when they are not cheating, is like us calling out your parents for cheating when they had you, because we don't like you.

No parent or coach should be yelling or taunting any kid, no matter what. And the HoCo league should not tolerate it either.

Have you seen the Crabs 2021 holdbacks strutting around as they run over kids two years younger? Have you seen the behavior of their owner? Have you seen the behavior of their parents? Do you really think someone on the sideline stating the obvious is going to somehow effect the well being of the kid on the field? Puhleez....

We just assumed that any adult, or really anyone that graduated the first grade, would understand how to act appropriate on a sideline, and certainly wouldn't introduce the "they did it first" argument into the discussion. That's all, don't over think it, hon.

My 6 year old stopped using this type of excuse for acting out when he was 4.

I have to say I think this is how I'm leaning.... as much as I dislike the idea of yelling at kids if your whole philosophy of sports is to tell other people to stop whining then I think the holdback parents need to take their own advice. And maybe the kid is on age but I would say that many times it's blatantly obvious to anyone with eyes the age differences. And yes, it's cheating.

While i agree about some of these holdbacks/prefirst acting a bit arrogant at times. It still is better left to give your opinions about how wrong it is with other adults/officials/club owners etc in the right setting or conversation maybe even the parent next to you in stands. Children are still children and shouldnt be belittled by adults. Having select children get an advantage that other children dont receive that are born on the exact same Birthday goes against everything youth sports stands for. Frankly the majority of people that have children that play lacrosse think it is just plain wrong

Howard County Recreation will always have a place as the organization that got the entire garbage of grade based lacrosse going in Maryland. Wonder who got them to start a grade based league when All their other programs and leagues are based on age. The private school influence? One of the Original Directors has his kid in a MIAA school. No other reason as most holdbacks/prefirsts are in private schools. Howard County Recreation department is the match that lit the torch of Youth holdback lacrosse in MD. Prior to this all Youth teams were age base. Hall of Shame goes to Howard County and its Recreation Department. You have a special place in YOUTH ATHLETICS.

LI started grade based lacrosse. MD followed suit. That ship sailed years ago. Get over it.

LI started grade based lacrosse. MD followed suit. That ship sailed years ago. Get over it. LI grade base actually gave them a disadvantage to MD age ( U ) based teams. Back a few years ago Sept 1 was cutoff for MD age based teams and Dec 1 or Jan 1 was cutoff for most LI schools. LI teams were 3-4 months younger than MD teams at that time. Now with MD grade base, MD teams are much older than LI teams . Ship hasnt sailed that far from shore. Hopefully with USL along with some Clubs finally getting into act maybe the ship might change course!

What is this tier ranking non-sense? Average level of play of top team at each grade (tier 1 = elite/aa depending on age, tier 3 =b etc). Just a way of gauging how competitive the clubs are. Not all clubs are the same at all grades. Look at hoco website standings for last you for specific grades.
