Not to say LWSC can’t eventually get to that level but right now it’s not even close to the original. Like Reply Quote

Both the old and new event had a very disproportionate amount of teams from New Jersey to Massachusetts, no?

The other event had much better participation from other regions before they stopped doing it. I think the Denver location was enticing for teams from west and Midwest regions. It wasn’t the same as Long Island but it was decent. With WSYL they would only take 7 teams from LI. Not they take 11-12. I think what was great about the WSYL was it was independent of any club. We all know it’s now run my US club lax……which is a 91 entity. Like Reply Quote

That’s why it tried to go more central in addition to attempting to be a growth vehicle for the sport. Now it’s just another tournament. If it’s going to be just another tourney, might as well be closer than Delaware and Maryland. Like Reply Quote

There are plenty of legit tournaments to enter without having to “qualify” for this sham tournament. It’s 2 tourneys - 1 in March, 1 in July. No need to make anything more or less out of this than what it is. If your son is on the team that wins either, he is on the right path. BUT that is all this means, it is still a long time from the Summer of 10th Grade when recruiting really kicks in. Like Reply Quote

If the tournament was still in minnesota i could understand fundraising to offset some travel costs. Just like i could understand teams from out west fundraising to offset costs for travel to pennsylvania (except we know now no teams from the west region signed up for the qualifier). There’s almost no justification to raise funds now for just another lacrosse tournament on the I-95 corridor. Like Reply Quote
