Team Threshers has a mistake- 2029 should be 2019.

and great stuff- thank you for your hard work!

Talk about getting an early start on building teams

Thanks for the keen eye on the chart.

Ok so your on a Travel Team from lets say 3rd Grade till Varsity and you spend approximatley $4000 a year with Tournaments, Fall/Winter League & Hotels/Food, which is a low cost. After all is said and done your kids still doesn't get a Fantasy Parshall Scholarship but you already could have paid for his college yourself. Does this make sense to anybody, all these teams need to bring there prices down. This is turning into a big business not for the kids.

holy cow fl$ 125 dollars. How do you justify that?

Awesome job thank you

I am not doing this so my sons or daughter can go to college. They enjoy the sport, they need more than PAL can offer them at this point and they have been excelling- which is a bonus. If they happen to get some sort of scholarship because they do well enough when they are entering college years- then that is even better. I allow them to play travel lacrosse because it keeps them focused, hard working, off the streets and off the video games. They learn to organize their schedules to fit in their practices, school work and social lives. They learn to make commitments and sacrifices. They meet friends outside of their town and they grow from the whole experience. As parents we enjoy travel lacrosse, hockey and soccer. We have made so many friends over the years through these sports and we enjoy traveling as a family and with our friends. I will miss the years when we do not have week ends home or away to cheer our kids on.

Completely agree. We enjoy watching our kids play and enjoy the trips as a family.

They limit the number of kids who can tryout, where most other organization are unlimited.

Thank you all very much for the positive feedback on both this grid and the launch of the Boys Fall 2013/Summer 2014 threads with the age-group specific tryouts listed.

What a comical justification, as if there will be will be too many for the younger grades that they will have to turn people away.

Please think about stressing education more than lacrosse. A "partial" scholarship may be more attainable if they can spell partial, unlike you. Wow!

fl$ does not limit tryout numbers. They are the greediest (other than LI Expre$$) organization. $125 is $125 to them.

With some tryouts on the same days, is it a big no no to miss the 1st tryout ?
