My daughter is a committed player to a D1 team, that did not play for T.G. or Y.J. As a matter of fact, probably the best 2014 player played for the Wave (K.M.). The point of this is fairly simple, and probably not what S.S or C.R. want any of you younger age group parents to know, It does not matter what travel club your daughter plays on, or on what color, or level,or initial comes after that club teams name. If your daughter is a good player, coaches will take her but it takes a lot of effort on the parents and players. The player must write letters to coaches and know at least 10 schools she wants to play for. The parents have to know to send the players to those camps early ( 7th or 8TH grade). Yes the college coaches will line the fields in June and July, but what they really want is to see how coachable your kid is at their camp, under their terms. So there is the secret, that is what you pay C.R. and S.S. extra for. Truth is just because you play on Black or blue or lavender means nothing, if your kid fits, she goes. One last word of advice, and for some of you parents this will be impossible for you to fix.If the parent is overbearing, obnoxious, loud on the sideline, or abusive, no matter how good your kid is, coaches will pass her by. Find some nice kids and parents that you and your daughter enjoy being around and have fun at tournament, and send your kid to camps. That will be $1,500.00 I'll be expecting checks from all of you L.O.L Just to make sure I have this right before I send in my check: Say no to a TG 2017 black team that a girl has been on and st show up at college camps? I'm serious. Because when I click on player bios almost all (including out of state) players have played at a club level and colleges ask what tournaments you will be in. As far as Wave isn't that the guy that rides around on a bicycle?

Believe it or not she was a West Islip resident can you imagine West Islip could of had the Long Island player of the year as well as the Suffolk County player of the year who was a Top Gun, they could have been 22-0 instead of 21-1 can you imagine how loud the lions would of roared! The parents are unbearable to begin with but 22-0 and with the top two players on long Island if not the state they would still be cheering 2 best players on LI? Ramping up Wave. Dude, you must be sniffing glue 21-1 yes that's right. How'd ur team do? Oh and BS was at LI champ game where WI won. Why? WI had 7-8 top gun girls playing

If she's so good, what the [lacrosse] is she doing at Towson? She is very good, have seen her play, which is hard given the path she had taken. One thing that jumps out in her stats is the huge number of assists she has, love that! Clearly not the typical TG or YJ product with the go to goal LI mentality. She is also able to stand out because she plays on weak school and travel teams. Put her on the WI roster and those stats get cut in half and there goes your argument for best player on LI. Not trying to cut her down at all here, just trying to reel the original poster back down to earth, you gotta put those stats and your lofty claim into relative perspective of the situation she plays in.

I will dumb it down for just you. Play T.G. black, supplement that with the college camps you daughter might want to go to, try ( and this will be real difficult for you ) not to run your mouth on the sidelines. Or better yet , don't take any advice from anyone that has gone through this recently, your daughter will be just fine.

One of the girls was Suffolk player of the year and was a Top Gun dude so that would clarify her as the best player in Suffolk dude. And the Wave Girl is one of the best in the State dude. The West Islip comment is how much better they could of been 22-0 instead of 21-1 with The Wave girl. Do you get it? Do I need to explain my saracasm in greater depth so you can grasp the concept? Let me know and I will for the benefit of the game.

However, you cannot judge SJB against top programs and declare someone the best player on LI. You are doing exactly what all of these parents do but in reverse. Also, declaring you are somehow smarter than others by going to camps and playing Wave (still a travel team that you pay fees to by the way) is nothing new. Many kids do both as well as playing in all-star games. There are lots of ways to get to college athletics and your holy than thou attitude is just as bad as the travel mafia parents.

Can someone please tell me the fall tournament(s) and summer tournaments for 2021 and 2022 TG black? I dont think TG Really enters TRUE teams in Fall tournaments. My daughters friend played fall last year and parents sort of organized the tournaments for the kids, well certain kids. They put together their own teams and asked some kids and not others, they did a bunch of 7 V 7, not real tournaments like Diane Whipple or Lax for Cure in the Fall. It is sort of an odd way to start off with a new club, at least she felt that way.

My daughter is a committed player to a D1 team, that did not play for T.G. or Y.J. As a matter of fact, probably the best 2014 player played for the Wave (K.M.). The point of this is fairly simple, and probably not what S.S or C.R. want any of you younger age group parents to know, It does not matter what travel club your daughter plays on, or on what color, or level,or initial comes after that club teams name. If your daughter is a good player, coaches will take her but it takes a lot of effort on the parents and players. The player must write letters to coaches and know at least 10 schools she wants to play for. The parents have to know to send the players to those camps early ( 7th or 8TH grade). Yes the college coaches will line the fields in June and July, but what they really want is to see how coachable your kid is at their camp, under their terms. So there is the secret, that is what you pay C.R. and S.S. extra for. Truth is just because you play on Black or blue or lavender means nothing, if your kid fits, she goes. One last word of advice, and for some of you parents this will be impossible for you to fix.If the parent is overbearing, obnoxious, loud on the sideline, or abusive, no matter how good your kid is, coaches will pass her by. Find some nice kids and parents that you and your daughter enjoy being around and have fun at tournament, and send your kid to camps. That will be $1,500.00 I'll be expecting checks from all of you L.O.L No thanks , look at where those wave kids are going, not exactly top D1 programs if you want that and even lower on the scale of academic institutions. You are such a tool. The point of the post was where is that one Wave kid going , or do you think Towson not good enough for your high academic standards. I assume you went to N.D. or Harvard seeing as you look down your nose at anything less. You're probably writing your posts from a solid gold laptop that you're able to flippantly purchase because your superb academic credentials got you the job of superior judge of everything lesser than you, especially Woman's lacrosse players and schools. As a matter of fact, You dolt, you unwittingly proved my point. Wave isn't the best program, with the most tournament wins,and a long pedigree of outstanding lacrosse commits, and yet the best player played there, she didn't play at St A's or Northport, but at S.J.B. and wether it meets your outstanding approval or not she is going to a top program, slated to do much better because K.M. is going there. And worst of all, god forbid, Carol Rose had nothing to do with it. Keep shelling out all your pocket money to Carol for Tournaments, jackets, hats, bumper stickers,privet lessons, luaus, cruses and a false sense of self worth as you live through your kid. The truth is the above stated facts still remain true. As for the other tool that asked if they should stop spending the money on T.G. black.Are you the parent that always has to find a problem with every post, or are you just so dim that everything has to be spoon fed. I will dumb it down for just you. Play T.G. black, supplement that with the college camps you daughter might want to go to, try ( and this will be real difficult for you ) not to run your mouth on the sidelines. Or better yet , don't take any advice from anyone that has gone through this recently, your daughter will be just fine. Talk about a tool, kid is a good player ,not the best. How do you define who is the best player? What accomplishments make her the best. Further isnt the idea to get the best education you can get, your wave commits including your best player in the state are going to sub par academic schools. The only facts about the wave program is they are not very good at lacrosse or placing kids at top academic or top lacrosse programs. Is what it is and you are the one telling all those kids from TG and YJ that are going to top 30 academic schools and top 10 lacrosse programs that you know a better way, the fact is you are clueless.

TG will send out info, and will tell you what team you are on. The reason they might have to combine girls(black,purple,white); because lots of girls have other commitments: school sports, and especially travel soccer games. We thought it was a nice way to meet the new girls, and hang out between games in a non-competitive environment.

That will be $1,500.00 I'll be expecting checks from all of you L.O.L And she played for the Wave because her High School coach was the coach of the Wave. Believe it or not she was a West Islip resident can you imagine West Islip could of had the Long Island player of the year as well as the Suffolk County player of the year who was a Top Gun, they could have been 22-0 instead of 21-1 can you imagine how loud the lions would of roared! The parents are unbearable to begin with but 22-0 and with the top two players on long Island if not the state they would still be cheering what the [lacrosse] are you talking about? What does west islip have to do with anything West Islip was the class A NYS runner-up this year if KM stayed put we would of won the State and would of been 22-0 instead of 21-1. Im sorry for not making it more clear to you. Im sure you remember West Islip going 21-1 and losing to SEVEN time State Champion West Genesse in the final up at Cortland i could always fill you in or pay more attention in 2015 to West Islip. KM played for the Wave because the Wave coach was her HS coach do you understand that? Go watch Towson play and you will see how good KM is and how much better Towson will be. Please pay attention to your reading comprehension R E A D slower so it sinks in more.

Are other TG players being invited to Maryland or is this an uber exclusive venue? Gets old when you have the same TG parents setting up tournaments at the younger age groups and they hand pick who is allowed to play. Somehow these parents have power over the rest of us and all they do is favor their own kids. The coaches kids never come out of the game no matter how many times they lose the ball and never play defense. Would be nice if something were available for all the kids and had actual coaches who knew something about the game instead of these guys who think they are the greatest coaches around. It does seem confusing that the program allows certain dads to cherry pick their own teams from the TG rosters. The 2019's and 2020's, in particular, really abuse the system by putting TG teams in under the cloak of a team with a different name. They complain all summer because their daughters team is not as good as some of the others, but fail to realize that by only getting who they believe to be "The Top 10" better, they are actually hurting the "Team." Instead of building unity and camaraderie, they build animosity. No "Team" can ever be all that good with that much divisiveness. The ABOVE is an EXAMPLE of what will go on in this fall at TG. See above thread from last fall. Parents picking "special" kids to play in tournaments. WELCOME TO TG!

If I recall correctly, there was plenty of bitching on the YJ thread about the same thing. If a parent puts together at team to take to a tournament, he/she can choose whomever he/she wants -- although they should not register under the club name. We never experienced this on TG or 91, but every age is different in club land.

This is our 3rd year with TG, and every year ALL players in our age group were invited to multiple fall tournaments, winter league, and winter practices.

This is our 3rd year with TG, and every year ALL players in our age group were invited to multiple fall tournaments, winter league, and winter practices. You must not be 2020

Are other TG players being invited to Maryland or is this an uber exclusive venue? Gets old when you have the same TG parents setting up tournaments at the younger age groups and they hand pick who is allowed to play. Somehow these parents have power over the rest of us and all they do is favor their own kids. The coaches kids never come out of the game no matter how many times they lose the ball and never play defense. Would be nice if something were available for all the kids and had actual coaches who knew something about the game instead of these guys who think they are the greatest coaches around. It does seem confusing that the program allows certain dads to cherry pick their own teams from the TG rosters. The 2019's and 2020's, in particular, really abuse the system by putting TG teams in under the cloak of a team with a different name. They complain all summer because their daughters team is not as good as some of the others, but fail to realize that by only getting who they believe to be "The Top 10" better, they are actually hurting the "Team." Instead of building unity and camaraderie, they build animosity. No "Team" can ever be all that good with that much divisiveness. The ABOVE is an EXAMPLE of what will go on in this fall at TG. See above thread from last fall. Parents picking "special" kids to play in tournaments. WELCOME TO TG! Who determines which daddy's get to pick the teams? Can any daddy just make their own team? Are the daddy's endorsed and supported by BS and SS?

In the off season you are responsible for finding a way to improve your daughters playing ability. If that means training, putting together a team for a fall event or picking up a stick yourself and working with your kid, so be it. Stop complaining that other parents are not including your kid in the off season. Take some ownership of the situation. None of these things are endorsed by TG.

So the TG "daddy" teams in the fall are not supported by TG and are picked by the parents and run by the parents. Thank you for the clarification.

Not on the 2020 black team that's all coming to an end

Only tourney they are in together is National Draw and I am sure TG will find a way to avoid playing YJ as they did last year.
