If things return to a new normal by Memorial Day, why would people expect a refund? Everyone will get practices and tourneys in. If things extend into June, ask then. The real sad thing is the HS season.

Lot of kids will be missing from this fall tournaments then. Soccer and football season.

Make sure to vote for your express teammates! God knows these parents need the ego boost.

Right! So ridiculous these constant contacts to vote for players.

Players grandparents and some parents are DEAD. Are they reaching out to families to see if they are OK?

Not every Express parent is uber wealthy. Terrible optics.

Zero info about the summer. Not even a "we are carefully watching the summer events" BS email.

I will vote as soon as Coach C at least says "Hi" or gives a nod the next time he walks by me as he goes over to hug a Manhasset dad and yucks it up!

Has anyone requested a refund and if so what was the response ?

Of course no one can answer that question , ill answer it for you . The answer is prob 98% noooooooo. There is something with parents not ruffling the Feathers with the lacrosse clubs . I seen dads with businesses, plumbers , landscapers etc ... do stuff for these directors . Its ugly out there . Moms looking all sexy and hot all the time who knows what they would do . I detest every last second of it because in the end it all means absolutely not a dam thing . The % to play at a high level like D1 is very slim , Long island is not even the top breading ground anymore for lacrosse. Keep drinking the koolaid and telll yourself it is . Your battling with 40,50 k prep/academy a yr schools in Indiana, maryland , philly ,NJ Connecticut. N.C FL TX is also Recruiting meccas . So keep paying tour $4,000 a yr plus some since little johnny been in 3rd grade and get get a answer about some kind of partial refund . Oh yeah last call the team store is open go get your team gear for the parents !!!

Yeah, total disgrace, and these coaches work for another organized crime called the catholic church. Look how they handled all the priest abuses. Do you think they actually care about Express coaches?

detest to give my opinion, because somebody pandemic expert will say get a clue...summer is done, enjoy your family, be thankful, get a life outside youth sports, etc, etc. I believe there will be a summer lax season.

Well get a life no chance and where are playing ? You going out of state? is out of state coming here ? Hotels , restaurants etc... tell your program cough up money we are done . You wont ...,,,I should put down the booze and learn to write a coherent post.

Does anyone have any insights regarding the 4th upcoming payment? Should i pay it?

That's not the real question, can you not pay it?

This person should inquire if BOCES offers night courses relating to basic grammar school sentence structure. Until then, pick up a few Dr. Seuss books, practice reading until classes begin.

Listen, NEW YORK is wearing the scarlet COVID letter right now. No way Maryland and other locals want us. Just sayin...

CoachC reminds me of the main guy in the netflix sitcom Tiger King

Good don’t need them. Enough competition in the tri state. My guess (and a guess) NLF in Umass is the only travel tourney. The rest will be all local and probably all rescheduled throughout the summer. That’s my guess, if lax returns, I would gauge it by when you could return to a movie theater, organized sports will resume. My guess is also June is not likely. July is a chance.

Movie theaters is not a good gauge at all, they are businesses who can't wait to make money again. Travel lax is a business also BUT it needs a place to practice and play. I can't see towns, school districts or colleges approving use of their fields. They have too much on their own plates to even discuss it. At least 4 colleges have cancelled camps and prospect days. I hope it happens but it does not look good. Express should delay final payment again.

So if a county beach opens, I would think that includes county fields and parks. I agree with schools, they may be more restrictive. But who knows. Everyone keeps saying a slow reopening, and it will, but once it starts and the data shows no signs of increase, it will accelerate. Honestly, let’s just be hopeful that happens and we don’t regress. I am guessing we will be on the fields by late June. But just my opinion.

So delightful to wake up to an auto generated email letting me know my last payment is due.
I think I enjoyed this more than the email asking for votes for their alumni.
Other than the last payment originally being delayed, it has been radio silence.

I emailed express this morning to inquire what the final payment covers. I didn't receive any reply back. If Express can't answer a simple two sentence email, they don't deserve payment.
