C'mon now. If you're gonna brag about being 'ranked' #4 you gotta at least own up to fact that some of those holdbacks are no longer eligible. Everyone knows some former Madlax 29s are now 28s. Why not just admit how many?


C’mon now. You asked a question and got the answer.

C'mon now. Lying is not the answer, Madlax mom. Why not own up to facts that some former Madlax '29s' are now, for some reason, playing for other clubs 2028s? Let's ask it another way and see if you can be more truthful: How many kids from Madlax 2029 aren't returning for 7th grade season?

The reality is that the boys talk, both on the field and on social media. I have a 2028 and a 2029 son and these boys know who the others are. I hear my 2028 son and his friends laugh about seeing on social media (last few months) the 2028s turning 14 and the 2029s turning 13. It's really weird that holdback-enablers will tell direct untruths about any of this. There's no club team from MD in the national top 50 that doesn't have holdbacks. There's lax holdbacks all the way down to AA ball, sadly. And, playing on the "national teams", whatever you think of that, guess what, the best teams from CT, LI, CA, FL, etc all have beaucoups holdbacks....and double holdbacks, which the Circuit had to make a special rule to allow 3 double holdbacks per team.

What are the odds that ML 2029, as skilled as they are, just "had none?" LOL.

One of the saddest parts of lacrosse is the multitude of holdbacks at youth level. No matter what anyone thinks, it just isnt good for the sport or for sure in youth athletics. So wrong, but will not stop as the private schools in MD are the drivers of elite lacrosse, and they have them in droves.
