Anyone have a pov on whether Leading Edge or Prime Time are better programs for middle school players? It seems PT has more top tier hs players but that may be function of their location near Brunswick and other good CT lax schools. I live in NJ and it would be a longer drive to have kid on PT but was wondering if anyone thinks PT is noticeably better in coaching and player development.
Prime Time has an excellent reputation and almost no one who is really good there every leaves. That being said, as with all top teams, make sure your kid is not at or near the bottom of the roster/pecking order, especially if he wants to be an offensive player. But this is mostly true at all the top teams. Also will need to watch how that pecking order changes, if at all, as he gets older. These teams will look to improve each year, and do tend to attract the top talents as the kids get older - much easier to make the team at 5th grade than at 9th grade.
You will also need to factor in bridge crossing - tolls are expensive.
