Understand there is politics in everything your son just have to rise above it all ..


Do yourselves a favor and register for the LI Showcase run by the Nassau/Suffolk County Coaches. Its half the price with just as many college coaches




The Li Showcase is just as Political!!! Its a great experience (my son had a great time) the price is great compared to the others but is it very political. One of the younger teams last year was run by a PAL coach who took his son and his friends kids. They went as the Catholic school team. ( none of the kids went to Catholic school) only 1 or 2 kids even made the top 50. On my sons team, there were many kids who made the top 50 but didn't make the team. I know its subjective and its hard to judge with limited time on the field. But its definitely Political!!!!
