Why isn't 91 United playing since it's a 91 tournament? We know TLI doesn't show for these tournaments and it seems Igloo doesn't want to start their $3500 season off by losing a bunch of games. Glad to see Express will be playing. It will be interesting to see if they are improved as they say.
Yeah, kinda stinks. Played a great game vs TLI on Monday and was looking forward to good competition here. Smash is up and Igloo and United aren't playing.
Teams use the excuses its a 91 run tournament and their not fair or we haven't practiced enough to jel. It's not the Olympics. It's 10 year old lacrosse. Just play and have some fun. If you lose some games fine. Just shows this is about business. Teams would rather not play and claim they are a top team. Sad this is what travel lacrosse has come to. Pretty soon all the good teams will be running to out of state tournaments to avoid losing to local teams and risk losing players the next year.
Either that - or teams are tired of lining 91 pockets with these tournaments. If you have been to some other tourneys I.e Hogan's. You can't compare. Many options out there now. People need to pick up there game.
Maybe at LaxFest - organizers can get the school to cut the grass and fill in the soccer ball sized holes.

Exactly. The kids don't care about losing some games. It's the organizations that care about their business and the parents that care what people will say on BOTC.

What other options are there on Long Island this fall? What team are you from and where will your team be playing this fall.
The 2020 division has the 91 Orangemen and Stampede. Are the Orangemen the B team behind Crush or would they be considered the C team behind Crush and Titanium? Does anyone actually know if 91 still has 4 teams in the 2020 year or have they cut down to only 3, the Crush, Orangemen and Stampede?
the running clock tourneys are falling out of favor with a number of clubs, especially in the younger ages. its just not good for coaching and its not the way the game is played. Understand why they do it from the tourney point of view but for the younger teams it sucks, don't get to coach or TO when you need to calm it down a bit.

Stay away from this tournament. let 91 play 91....IT MAKES NO SENSE. They put themselves in a no win situation if 91 is nearly the only organization in the tournament.
Funny 91 teams don't even go to 91 tournaments. 2021 Orange is not going to HH. They are good but not too good for this tournament like Igloo is. The 6 best teams in 2021 have about the same talent except for Igloo. 91 should not cry when teams don't go to 91 tournaments when 91 teams don't go. Having said that we enjoy 91 tournaments and don't mind some of the stuff that goes on. It is always a fun day.

Laxfest is the only 91 tournament that they send all of their teams too. They have way to many tourneys to send their teams to them all and most are low competition events so they don't want to send their better teams.
Igloo better enjoy their final days up top reality is coming straight at AA. TLI is legit,Express is MUCH improved and 91 has a little surprise for AA that he will have no answers for.
