Express 2018 Orange was not at the same tournament either. Who did the 2018 fl$ play?This being the first year of this fl$ team it was formed with players from other teams that left.Many of them making the B teams at other organizations.I am sure you will see this team grown and drop some of these players when the get a few more to leave or get cut from the A team from elsewhere.
Not sure where your info is coming from? There are a number of kids on this 2018 team that played on Express Orange, 91 Orange and Team LI A team last year. As well as a couple that played up on fl$ 2017 team last year. Along with others from Cold Spring, GC and Manhassett. Not exactly B team kids. This is not a crazy over the top win at all cost team. It's much more about individual developement and being a team. fl$ is about having the kids grow as players at this age.(more intense as they get older) They are much more even handed about playing time. Not as concerned about winning the Summer Lax Blast 6th grade "made up" Championship. Will they beat 91 or Express? Who cares, it's 6th grade! Will they be better players and not burnt out? Absolutely! Will some of the best 2018 players from 91 and Express try out next year for fl$? YES.
Here's a little education for you. If you think you're son is showing up at a tryout for Express or 91 with 150++ other kids and making one of their 2018 Orange teams, think again. It is a fact, any kid who made one of those teams this year (2018)who was not on the team last year was either asked before the tryout to play, or had some other in. These two teams in particular started looking at, and approching kids for this year, before thier summer seasons where even over last year.
