Jesters, Empire and Legacy are awful. At this age group.

Watching YJ A play my daughter's team yesterday, the biggest thing I noticed was not stick-skills, IQ or coaching (I'm not saying they didn't have talent, they did).

It was physical maturity. In 7th grade, some girls are girls and some are young women. YJ had a lot of young women and the difference was very obvious.

Yesterday was a 7v7. Very possible they were not all that Grade.

?

Agreed. What usually sets youth YJ teams apart is physical maturity, speed and shooting abiilty. Lots of team have really good stickwork, but no youth teams shoot like YJ.

I dont think the 27s have the speed of past YJ youth teams, but there size (especially in midfield) and shooting ability is second to none. Not as much speed on this team. Not to say they are slow, but the last two YJ A teams could just fly past opponents when they were in 7th grade.

4 yj teams, 3 flg, 2 S2s, 3 jesters teams. Where did all these teams come from?

FLG only has 2 teams. Remember for 7v7 some clubs split their teams

YJ teams have the physically mature teams and No youth teams shoot like YJ. They are second to none. Is this your first go-round in wlax?? Cmon man!!! Are you serious ?? This will be a fun thread to watch in the future.

ok YJ Dad! thanks for letting us all know they are "second to none" multiple times....outside YJA I'm not really sure what the heck you are talking about

FLG has 3 teams entered in Queen of the Island on the 30th
Blue Devils, Navy and White. Not a 7v7 tourney

Aces Elite is the best shooting team I've seen at 2027 level. #2 on Aces is a special talent.
YJ A right up there of course, though I think they tend to press.

They've done this before and referred to the "3rd" team as Carolina (in addition to Navy and White) but FLG only has two teams - they split them up to get additional play time in that tourney

Interesting. How big are the rosters that they can afford to do this?

Hmmmm, reading comprehension problem? Obviously not a YJ dad. Maybe have a fourth grader read it for you. Geeez
