Yet, travel organizations take the money from the players your talking about when they should not be on the team in the first place. I don’t think anyone wants a magic organization, it’s hard enough to find a decent one. Have real try outs and don’t take every kid that tried out just to make money. That is the real problem with these organizations. Very few organizations actually deliver on what their selling the rest are in it for the money.
When you join Rebels the first email you will get it to send them more money for RDS training before they have even provided you with a team practice. Definitely a money driven organization.
My son played for Rebels last year. You people are delusional when it comes to picking apart these organizations. What didn’t you get and when didn’t you get it by? One person stated they didn't get their Box Lacrosse uniforms on time. OK, box lacrosse for 3rd graders and you’re worried about your jerseys - just throw a pinny on and give it a run. That turned into them promising “thousands of dollars in equipment and only delivering half”. And now they’re being accused of ripping off “parents and kids futures”. If you’re looking for a first year lacrosse program to deliver on parents and kids futures, you’re part of the problem. So many kids show up to practice and they can’t even catch or throw, then the team gets blamed for being terrible. Travel clubs do not teach basic skills, it is expected that your little superstar be able to play at a travel level, before tryouts. Instead of wasting people’s time posting about these sub-par organizations that rip people off and steal parents and kids futures, go have a catch with your son, help him develop a passion for the game and confidence that he’ll succeed under any Coach, at any level. Stop waiting for that magic organization thats gonna deliver on all your lacrosse hopes and dreams - it ain’t happening. Too bad by the time you realize that, your student will be on his 4th team by 7th grade.
