It would help your case a lot if you knew what you were talking about. When you come out of the gate completely misinformed, you look foolish.

PM is from Mt. Sinai, not GC. He coaches boys varsity at Comsewogue. He had a daughter on the 2015 Blue Team that he coached and now has 2 daughters and a niece on the 2019 B Team that he's taking over, so no matter what anyone on this thread says, he is the epitome of a "daddy coach". The 2019 players and parents can judge for themselves what caliber of coach he is and how much nepotism plays into his handling of the team.

As for your comments about KL, since she only coached that YJ C Team last year, you've probably outed yourself, but since it seems like you're leaving, who cares, right? That said, you know perfectly well that her daughter wasn't on her team last year, so she had no control over her playing time. Did it influence team placement? Maybe, but let's see the 2015 summer team rosters shake out.

K.L. wasn't born a Y.J. she coached other travel clubs before Y.J. so I guess your not as informed as you think you are

I still don’t understand what a sausage coach is.

I agree if you are not happy there are plenty of other options available. Just remember "The grass isn't always greener"

[quote=Anonymous]Some of the daddy coaches are better than the coaches with credentials. Just because you played in college doesn't mean you can coach. Not saying all the daddy coaches are good but some may be better than ones who have "credentials" [/quote

Agreed. And that is why they brought in coach "sausage". To clean up the sh÷t show you know who created.

Using the Quote button helps everyone know to which post you are replying. Was there a thread that said KL was born a YJ?

The only people who could possibly be happy about a scenario like this would be a coach with a daughter not quite up to speed or a friend of the coach with a daughter not quite up to speed. Everyone else, who are there because they earned it, not exactly happy as it doesn't help the team out unless the coach is so good it outweighs the baggage. When I see players on the field with a team clearly in over their heads, I feel bad for them. Parents may think they are doing them a favor exposing them to a higher level of play, but that's not the case. Some of the coaches seem to have no shame about it, it honestly embarrassing, but hey, as long as your happy, just know how everyone else feels.

Need some advice. I have a 1st grader. Don't have any experience with girls lacrosse. I have a third grade son who plays.

What should I be practicing with her? I've been bringing her to wall ball but it's been frustrating for her. We work on cradling. Can someone give me some ideas? Do girls need to work off hand as much as boys? They also seem to hold the stick much lower. Should I have her practicing this way?

Any help appreciated.

Winning games and playing lower level teams is not the point of a recruiting tournament. 2018 elevate parents were not happy that they spent a day beating up on low level club teams so they can go 4-0 with no college coaches watching. Elevate parents who want college coaches to see their kids need to make sure their kids teams are playing quality teams. Even if they lose they will get noticed.

Well.... You have your Bratwurst, German I think and goes great with a good beer.

Then theirs the Polish sausage, onions and potatoes good for breakfast.

Advice to the parent of the first grade girl: Go to Disney World.

Who was the Stars team that beat YJ 2019 BLUE @ T-3? According to Roster , 3 girls that just made top blue team played....after all the hype about them...looks like they couldn't get the job done.

There are only two names without numbers on the roster , how do you know there were three new players. Who's the third? Do you have inside information.??

2 without numbers and looking at the other names on that roster, it was a mixed team with only a few from the blue team.Conclusion, someone waiting to stir the pot, as usual with no credit to their argument. NEXT

incorrect! there are 3 girls without numnbers on that tournament roster on YJ site. Original Poster was in fact correct

Why doesn't that blue team travel together?? 18 Blue was there with most of the players, 17 blue travels with most of there players even 20 blue travels with most of there players. Maybe its time for new leadership. Can anyone say Pete Mitchell.

15 were blue... maybe when the coach starts caring, the players will start caring!!!!

No pot stirring just stating facts. 15 is hardly a few.

The 2020 gold team didn't a coach he bailed on coaching and wasn't replaced. A couple of Dads had to step up. So much for saying we have two blue teams when only one matters.

The Dads that wear all the YJ attire.
