What happened to MadLax? I thought they had a game scheduled for this weekend?
Not my son's team but guessing they had to postpone due to not enough bodies b/c of Landon spring break. NL and BLC have a bunch of Landon kids as well but are somehow managing to play weeks 1 and 2. Oh well.
It shouldn't be allowed. Spring break dates are set in stone months prior. Every other team in this league also has spring break at some point or another during the HOCO season. Why does Cabell get to change, postpone, cancel dates? Are the other age group Madlax teams postponing also?
Not enough bodies? Forfeit.
Tons of my sons team are going away during the week... but care enough to be back for the weekend games. Maybe Madlaxs' vacations are just much much nicer than ours.
I'm not a MadLax parent, but seriously? Shouldn't be allowed?
Most families are lucky to get a couple of chances a year to take a vacation together, and as the parent of a high schooler I can assure you that those opportunities only shrink as they get older, especially if they play high school sports. If both teams can find a more convenient time to play, why do you care? If your entire family is planning its life around 7th grade HOCO, you may want to reconsider your priorities.
So you’re saying hoco games can be postponed or re-scheduled?
They couldn't, ever, until last week. In a prior season, my son played in a playoff game where they had a total roster of 14 - and no goalies - because standardized testing for private schools was happening at the same time the league scheduled the playoff game. And our boys lost by 3. End of season. HoCo league was contacted as soon as the game was scheduled and requested a reschedule but that request was denied because "what if we did that for every team with a conflict?"

Cabell's in his underground bunker researching how he's going to pitch "Yeah we placed 4th/5th in HoCo, but true lax eliteness is really about the fall tournaments! LFG Madlax Monuments Fall 2023.a.1.c!"
Next Level has been eating MadLax's lunch on the on the field and in player movement in the 2024, 2026, and 2027 classes. it's hard to see how it won't happen relatively soon in 2028.
Funny, I claimed the same thing on this forum a month ago and was told, "I knew nothing!"
