Fall tournaments same, top guns tells the dads if they want to organize it go ahead again do you really join travel for dad coaches that do not even know lacrosse.


From my experience, no matter what club you play for, you are better off to go find some pickup teams to play with (IMO). We actually/usually turn down the offers to play off season with the club. Many lacrosse opportunities fall and winter are 7v7, these club teams are 24 on roster, already way too big for even the 12v12 tournaments. It is great to go out and do stuff on your own accord rather then the packaged club crap. Your travel club has many players and parents that you were placed on a team with. Some are great, some are not (on and off the field). I love doing the, off season stuff, out of club. Picture going to tournaments you chose, with just the right amount of subs, comprised of players that play a style of lacrosse you agree with, all with parents you can tolerate standing next to on the sidelines. Alternative, go play with your club at some crappy tournament that is probably making your club director even richer, sit on the sidelines with piles of girls waiting to get in the game as you watch the same girls you watched all summer continue to force it everytime they touch the ball, all the while standing next to an obnoxious parent screaming " go to goal". Have fun with that.
