Passive aggressive?? Did I say anything about YJ? Not a recruiter, want the teams to remain and battle for years to come.
yes , you did. you said they did not play all the kids , but elevate did. Read your post for clarification. That is , passive aggressively , putting down the jackets.
and the long island ducks would love to play the Yankees everyday too . If you knock other programs , expect some truth back at ya. I think you get the picture .
As a TG parent this is exactly why people have issues with YJ and their culture. The 2021 Elevate team beat us and it was a good game and we would like to play them again as it is always good to play strong competition. The YJ team beat Elevate at the Cure 3-2 but uses the analogy that Elevate playing YJ is like the Ducks playing the Yankees? Why couldn't a 2021 YJ parent admit that it was a good game that was decided by a goal instead of putting the other team down and making it as if it wasn't competitive. Is that the culture that the YJ club breeds? Why would anyone want to be part of that?
I agree the comparison and belittling of another program is not necessary and I am a YJ parent. That being said, the prior posts on the Elevate and YJ 2021 games were not accurate and made excuses for the three losses. The excuse was YJ played only it's "top" players and that is simply not true. I watched all three games and YJ had balanced playing time, has been that way for 2 years and 12 plus tourneys between the summer and fall seasons. All the girls played 40% or more in each of the three games, again, balanced. Just leave it as three competitive games, hopefully it will continue as it is good for the development of both teams and do not make excuses. At the end of the day, 0-3 is what the issue is and had to be because YJ played a win at all costs style and we did not. Unfortunately the above YJ parent took the bait and went below the line.
not true my kid did not get equal time.
Of course it is NOT true - YJ was trying to win a playoff game and they were down 1-0 to start the game. They aren't and shouldn't be giving kids equal time and I know CR would agree with that 100%! Equal playing time in a playoff game is not the YJ way and everyone knows that.
The post said balanced not equal. For the Elevate folks on this thread, look to your own playing time. First middies took a several minute break after starting the game and played the rest of the game. Best defender played almost every minute. I saw more win at all costs from Elevate than YJ.
