The tournament is a week before thanksgiving and many families have plans to stay for the whole week, or stay for prospect camps, or have relatives in the area or may have booked VRBO with other families to save money. Just appears that one of the main organizations that is supposed to be promoting and growing girls/womens lacrosse is most interested in the money grab!

They don't care if your daughter gets recruited. They just want everyone to pay the fees.

Is there any tournament that actually is in the best interests of the players , boys or girls ?? Those days are long gone. These tournaments and and 99% of recruiting events are always First about making money, second many are about getting players seen.

Lacrosse no matter how much the holier than thou coaches talk, are interested in the bottom line of money and winning, players are secondary.

Doesnt mean you cant call them out as they are necessary for many.

Buyer Beware.
