True is a money grab . Why train,,Take money and play I've been around lacrosse the past 20 years, ALL clubs are a money grab. parents are pay $2000 and up for club when they used to pay about $100 for rec. True is no more of a money grab then any other club, please enlighten everyone as to what club isn't overly priced True is charging the same or higher amounts as elite clubs in the area (hawks, 91, crabs,..) with lots of hype. The coaches they have are not as experienced and the results speak for themselves. Other clubs charge a lot less and get better results in B/C/D divisions. Personally I had hope when they came that we had a real competition to the hawks. Clearly that's not been the case. True can compete with Hawks and did so in the fall. Pretty sure it was a one goal game. The gap has closed on Hawks[/quote] Elaborate on this. Which True team and what was the score?[/quote] Yes, please. Ture Annapolis and the Hawks have never played. Whatever version on True the Hawks played in the fall, it was not a 1 goal game

Clearly, based upon this banter, there is club rivalry between True Annapolis and Hawks. Instead of arguing on this web site why don’t the coaches simply schedule a play date next weekend or the weekend after and let the kids play? Win or loose it will be fun for the kids and put an end to this senseless back and forth.

Clearly each team thinks they are better then the other based upon the chest puffing on this blog so it takes real arrogance to speak of equal competitiveness. PLAY THE GAME and let the result speak for itself!

What years are we talking about? This thread has become ridiculous. It must be the children.

I wish it were the children, but it is a small group of Hawks Dads who embarrass the program on this board and on the sidelines. The majority of Hawks families are class acts.

How were the numbers at True VA today or was it even held due to field conditions?

More than a few parents, it’s a club wide issue. Multiple Hawks teams have parents who act like 6th graders. They chicken hawk up and down the side line giving their kid garbage then yelling at kids on the other team. This has been going on from the 2019 teams through 2024, it’s accepted behavior by the club.

You will find parents like that on every sideline. Not saying it is right, but you are blind if you don't think it is a problem throughout the sport, heck, all sports.

I think that there is truth on both sides of the debate - yes, the program has a culture of permitting low rent sideline behavior on all its teams, but in fairness, the 2026 team has a couple of Dads who are exceptional in this regard.
