Why isn't my 9th grader on the list she buzzes around all summer and is really good

Found some TG too

Congrats to all the girls from all the clubs. You can rip CR and YJ all you want but they produce players no doubt. Don't know if it comes from various team selections, press coverage or maybe even the fact that in YJ they have names on jerseys, but they do a very good job with getting players to be known quantities.

All of these lists skew toward the more recognizable clubs and programs across all sports. Do you really think USA today and Under Armor and Nike and msg varsity really know these kids especially the ones near the bottom? A Wave kid probably has to be twice as good as a YJ to make the list.

Great job by any kid on ANY list but the "name game" definitely plays a part. Politics are everywhere

YJ gets the top athletes that is what makes the program good. But only so many top players can play at once. Better players that may not be getting the time have to go somewhere else to develop their potential rather than sit on the bench just to say they are a YJ. Case in point Taylor Moreno, Elevate; Katie Reily, Elevate; Katie Muldoon, TG.

Does ESM have a new girls coach for 2015? or is the goalie daddy the new coach?

Women's lacrosse is such a great sport to watch . There are truly some amazing kids who are so gifted athletically. Thank you for sharing your daughters with the rest of us. In no time they will be heading off to college and starting the next chapter of their lives. Please take the time to enjoy these wonderful young ladies. Enough with knocking another person down for whatever perceived shortcomings they may have. These are our daughters and they will be gone before you can blink an eye. Hug your daughter when she gets home. I guarantee you will feel better than when you spend time online.
ENJOY THE WEEKEND!

Looks like W Bab N Haup are playing W I. E I didn't schedule any tough NL.

Who is gonna win div1 and div 2 this year pls answer

It's between last years finals teams, ESM, Sayvile, and throw WBab and Hauppauge into the mix.

Lol. Narcissistic Sayville guy at it again. I thought box scores don't tell the truth? Like the Maryland Hofstra game. Get over yourself Mr. Know-it-all.

Many towns In "A" are happy to see W Bab and Hauppauge go to "B". My $ is on Hauppauge to win it in Suffolk.

What districts allow 7th and 8th graders to play jv or varsity? Does every district make their own decision about this?

Yes. It's different in every district.

I have been told by parents of certain districts that their own district won't pull 7 th, or 8th or whatever up because its against their policy, mostly to justify that their daughters not getting pulled up. Then to see them pull from these grades a year or two later.
Some district constantly pull up, some seemingly never and some only when a truly special player comes along, I support the last scenario.

My district used to pull up a lot but this year changed policy somewhat. There is nothing set in any district and it can change whenever.

If your kid is good the varsity coach will know about her. The coach ahould have a need for her on his/her team with the realization that she will play on varsity and be effective . The coach would have already reached out to you months ago to discuss the classification process with you. If you have not heard from anyone at this point the reality is your daughter may be good but not any better than what the coach already has. So she will have to play MS ball like everyone else. When her time comes maybe 8th grade maybe not all depends on the district, she will get the call up maybe to Varsity or JV . Coaches will fight for your kid if she is needed. The problem is parents fight for their kid before they are needed and it puts a bad taste in everyone's mouth from the Ad down.
