He's probably short too.

I heard Rebels were playing Riptide next week?

Toxic is right.

It’s actually a game the Rebels could win.

Feeling very rebellious

Can't blame parents here for toxicity.

Parents definitely didn't destroy the potential that team had in this case.

What happened to Rush? I thought they were going to be the new hot club?

Who said that?

Legacy always tried running with the big clubs but never got there!

2 of 3 owners are great guys. Ones, well let’s just say does not fit that category. Most important thing to a man is his Word(the truth) someone over there never got that concept.

world series teams registered so far, only the top 7 advance.
less than a month away. predictions on the 7?

Igloo
team mass
express north
LI express
91 rage
91 machine
legacy
FCA
primetime
rebels
2way
albany power
cavalry
shore to shore
predators
orange crush
eclipse

Curious question because it relates to my son:
How many 2nd line players, in general, see the field at WSYL or other top tournaments?
How many of these 2nd line kids will move to other teams this summer after tryouts?
My son is second line on a AA team, but not sure if I should move him.

C'mon you have got to give us more than that. Which one?

did the legacy/rush merge help the legacy gators? they weren't a strong team to begin with

Team Mass
LI Express
91 Machine
Rebels
2Way
Shore 2 Shore
Eclipse

If we’re to follow US Club Lacrosse National Rankings:
1. 91 machine (1)
2. 2way (6)
3. team mass (10)
4. shore to shore (11)
5. LI express (13)
6. FCA (30)
7. legacy (35)

But US Club rankings don’t take into account age eligibility and any stud acquisitions/losses. In addition these rankings include fall ball.

Also, a few clubs that entered are new which could be, and likely are, super teams in the making. Why else would they be entering this tournament as a new club? IMO, less than one year old clubs should not be allowed.

Eclipse is not in the rankings for whatever reason ..they are a top 10 team . Legacy is a joke . And s2s has two of their top players age out (goalie and beat defender) so these rankings mean nothing

Rankings are good directionally when one takes into account factors you raise. So what’s your ranking then?

1. 91 machine (1)
2. 2way (6)
3. team mass (10)
4. Eclipse
5. LI express (13)
6. shore to shore (11)
7. FCA (30)

Owners are good people they just let some coaches run amok or were just complicit in fixing it properly or just enabled it. There was so much potential lost.

I suppose that order seems ok except that as mentioned earlier s2s goalie and beat defender age out so who knows what that will mean for that team . Also , where is bbl? Is their team too old or just choosing not to go ? Bbl is another top 10 team

BBL would compete in the Mid Atlantic Bracket if they enter.

And don’t count out the new super teams!

Please stop drinking and putting the Rebels in - too funny

if the club's smart they get all their kids in but I want my kid playing, on the field. Even if it means he's on a lesser team. Kids do improve a bunch at practice but nothing like they would during games. Ego aside, find a team where he's playing, a contributor. my two cents.

this random dudes opinion -

1. 91 Machine - no question
2. Eclipse - didn't play enough fall games to "rank" but are real good and on age
3. LI Express - no question
4. S2S - should be there, they've played together long enough
5. Team Mass - big question bc they're not a real team but have to assume Mass will show up, they'll be good
6. 2way - team is mostly brunwick holdbacks who are not that good in the first place but also age out for the WS. shouldn't even be on the list but they have cool unis
7. 91 Rage - giving them the nod since they've been together a long time and play the right way!

Good list

Sweetlax Upstate will be there too!

Sweetlax Upstate will be there too.

Not far off but you're forgetting FCA and sweetlax. Also, go take a look at rages strength of schedule . They don't play any good teams and when they do they lose every time . Not sure they even crack the top 10. Rage and igloo haven't been in the conversation for a long time .

the WS website says that the top 7 will advance from each division. the divisions outside the east don't even have 7 teams registered yet? this is already turning into a joke. our kids are going to travel to maryland to play against each other again.

Can someone please share the link to the organization taking over the WS? Thank you! I can't find the site.

Is there a reason why my posts don't go up ? This site is ridiculous . Becoming like twitter and Facebook

Has always been a joke . Lacrosse is just no that popular across the country. Even in the northeast there are places that have no idea what lacrosse is . They keep saying it's the fastest growing sport but still not as popular as slow pitch softball and that's a fact . And the PLL can't even fill half of a stadium . What did you think would happen when USCL took it j we and expanses rosters to 30? Was always a joke and will always be a joke

Even most of the kids could take it or leave it

Followed a bunch of them since kindergarten through now playing on various town and travel teams and they cared less until about 6 months ago when the travel management marketing team gets on coaches and then they get on parents and players about the illusion that the WSYL matters so maybe now they care a little because that is all they have heard forthe last9- 12 months

For ONE tournament, the playing field has been leveled, and you don’t like it. LMAO

All the detest for just ONE tournament in probably 100 plus tournaments our kids will play in before college.

Try not to be so obvious next time of the advantage you give your kid/team.

Yeah, I'm sure most of the kids had no interest in playing on ESPN last year - they could "take it or leave it". Because you can't use your age advantage, your teams are non-competitive . . . and therefore the tourney is notIntelligent and a joke.

Stop with the detest. It is ONE tournament in 100 plus. What are you getting so mad about?

It’s the only age based tournament around. Attend if you can/want, or don’t. Life goes on.

If you’re kid is going, great. Will see you there.

This board has become a joke, posts are now put up then taken down if someone doesn’t like them or not put up at all. Apparently the admin is biased and this forum has become just like Twitter and Facebook. If the admin and his/her friends font like adverse opinions they don’t share them . What a joke
