I disagree with all of the following, but here goes............
That is just not so in lacrosse (in this country), where the majority of coaches and I'd bet half of USL employees have a vested interest or deep belief in keeping lacrosse elite and hard to access....."growing the game" is seen as important only to the extent that it serves to identify elite talent that King Krab, Millon, or Maddux can put on a plane from TX or TN or Utah on a Friday afternoon.
True
High level youth lax is a status symbol --- Making it fair would make it less elite, because the lax-specific holdback scenario (and ability to pay for travel) are the result of earning money (or the privilege of inheriting it).
True. Very well thought out and said. This is why the PLL assist and the fake attempts for diversity and inclusion are just a ruse. They don't mean it.....its just HR talk.
