This is the densest thing on this forum..

M & D Red is the worst of the bunch mentioned above, including Capital Blue that wasn’t mentioned. You’re delusional!

Players should move more not less. Most clubs having tryouts on the exact same day is the tell that they do not want you leaving. Go be a big fish in a small pond, rather than being stuck with limited minutes. You owe these clubs none of your loyalty. Everyone is a free agent in the current model.

If you are not an impact player on your team -you are not getting the scholarship opportunities. Club owners only want those kids going high D1 to brag for their social media. The rest are after thought getting 5 grand a year at D2

I'm going to assume your 25 is your oldest child and you're just misinformed. But the DI players (except for a very small handful) aren't getting much more than that in scholarship money either. Maybe up to $10 - $12K. But DI schools only have so much money to spread over rosters of 35-40 girls. I sure hope your daughter is one of the top 10 girls in the entire country or you're in for a rude awakening

Here is an observation, there are 117 D 1 schools scholarship with plenty of money to be had. Don't look to go to a school that has 35-40 kids on a roster especially if you are not getting a significant amount of money. The amount of money offered is commiserate with the playing time to be expected. Don't get caught up with name and rankings if finances are a major concern. Concentrate on a school where the coach wants you more than you want them. If your daughter/son has great grades look for a school that will combine academic aid with athletic aid, not all do. Only a handful will be able to make a living out of lacrosse after they graduate, so walking out of school with as little debt as possible should be the goal. Finding the right fit will make for a happy athlete/student and in turn parent.

Agree-my older D played mid D1 bewtween academic added to athletic was full tuition-just room and board to cover . Also played on only team no B team at B+ club with great family atmosphere.

Rosters should be posting soon. Don't expect much in terms of girls switching clubs this year due to Covid.

Now that the teams are solidified can someone explain the difference between NGLL and the Howard county league starting this fall?

One is Spring league. The other is Fall.

Is going to be a permanent thing?

Maybe someone is trying to offer a league run by someone else. It's great this fall since most rec sports are canceled

No. It’s only happening because of the pandemic.

So there’s a girls fall Howard county league AND the coppermine league (fall, outdoor)?

Wonder which clubs will participate in one or both
