Tournaments are money makers, regardless of the sport. Clubs host tournaments to raise funds. No shame in that. I just think that it is unreasonable to expect clubs to work together to put on a LI festival, too many chiefs, not enough indians in that. Now, if lax ever got a LI governin body, maybe that organization could put something together...

Secondly, has anyone seen the fields in Brentwood adjacent to SCCC West? Huge fields. I've been there for soccer, not sure who owns them, but that seems like a great location to host a lax tournament. It's close enough to the LIE for hotels, too. Lord knows we all stay at hotels a good distance from all our out-of-state tournaments.

Just my two cents, your mileage may vary.
