You're talking about club lacrosse....
At the grade school level maybe it's about team chemistry. Def about having fun, getting better, making friends and getting some t-shirts. Middle School, have fun, play club at a top level with friends and start seeing where you are in the lax universe. HS, club is every man and team for themselves. If you're good and looking to get recruited so go where that will happen. Team chemistry and wins that matter are for the HS season. I get it but the only loyalty required here is to your family. Honesty on the other hand is a different story. Tryout season feels like a game of survivor. How does that player know where he stands to manage tryouts and team movement?
This is exactly right, and if you kid is one of the fortunate few to get the D1 offer, it doesn't get any better in college, every practice is a tryout, a lot of kids competing for very limited field time, always having that scholarship money hanging over your head is a ton of pressure....not cutting it, goodbye scholarship. |
