Re the 4Leaf kid and "his friend"...I have to assume you are the Chad wearing the copious amounts of pastels playing for 4Leaf at Naptown? Um, no. 4Leaf wasn't there. You were playing on another team you paid to be part of for the summer tournaments. Get a life.

Lastly, re the schedule. PT is not a Madlax tourney so how is CM rigging the system? Please tell me how that is possible and what proof do you have showing that?

I love to rip on ML but this guy is correct for the most part.
If these kids are in the roster, how are they guest players? Sounds like they play for ML when they can. Someone said they played with them in Orlando, again this summer, maybe they’ll play with them in the fall. I’m no expert on 6th grade lacrisse, but sounds like these 2 kids are legitimate members of this team.

Do any NL or Hawks kids play for other teams? JM3, Team 18, Nationals LC, etc? Would that make those teams “shady?” Again, no expert, but it sounds like those boys and their parents see some benefit in their boys playing additional lacrosse with an elite level team. Heck, a kid from New Hampshire needs to travel to get decent competition. Either way, if you want to accuse kids of being mercenaries, whatever. But tough to say that a program is shady for having 2 out of town kids ON THE PERMANENT ROSTER.
By the way— BBL Black is NOT the team that was at Naptown. That was “BBL National.” Kids from sister program… good for them. Pull in some great players to make them better. Love that.

Just because they’re added to an app i.e. roster doesn’t mean they paid, coach or directors in charge of app simply adds them and bam you think it’s legit. Exactly why they added them lol. But even if they did pay they are still out of towners they’re not practicing with you they are strictly pulled in to help win so your team is not legit.

Sir, have you been around the sport of lacrosse before? Your son is only on -any- club roster for one of two reasons, "strictly to help them win" or "strictly to give the club more money." Everybody on the outside of the lax world knows that drop-in players are a bad look. But notice that very few parents or players from Team 91, Crabs, ML, or others (and really, most AAA+ clubs at the HS level) are complaining about the issue, even though it means their own kids get less PT (sometimes significantly less). That's because the club gets more wins as a result, which they can brag about at the next Peter Millar beach wear photo shoot.
