LI showcase tryouts can anyone share previous experience?thoughts? Do committed boys go to this or not? I know a player in suffolk that is committed and last year he didn't sign up for this event after starting the 2 previous years in the game. He told his parents that he wanted to give an opportunity to players that were not yet committed like he already was. After the first round of try outs he received a call at his house asking why he wasn't at the try outs and to be at the next round because he is a starter in the game.

Yes doing showcase if the rain ever stops and if it stops getting cancelled. Lots of kids attend but it is a great experience and lets you know where you stand for your year.
Just a question from someone who didn't attend the Run with the Best. Our friend said everyone got emails which they should for that amount of money but were there any individual emails. They only received threads for prospect days. Isn't it just less expensive to just contact the schools you are interested in and find out the dates of their prospects camps yourself. Anyone can attend a prospect day if they show interest in the school. When you contact a school directly you can also get information on hs grades and sat scores needed to actually get into your school of choice. And not to be a wiseass - just trying to find information - did any of the coaches say how many spots/scholarships are still available for the different age groups for the colleges that attended and were watching the boys. My son received thread emails from several schools from another tournament he attended who were upfront and honest about open spots for his age group before we signed up for the prospect days and some did not offer any information. It was nice to see some honesty out there and not just someone grabbing for my wallet.
Great event. Not everyone received emails to prospect days. Its a fact. Had a decent amount of friends (not acquaintances) attend event. Some received emails others did not. Those who did, did not receive emails from the same schools that my son did. Coaches at recruiting meeting specifically spoke about dates as to when they can actively contact a player and when they can not. They both said first step they can initiate is inviting to their prospect day. Once that is initiated then the process can move forward. The fact that coaches who were at the event sent out prospect day info to some players and not all in my book shows interest. It was not a cattle call of invites. Did not receive 25 invites but 5 to 6 for decent programs. In regards to the number of players they are looking for I think that this wouldn't have been the proper venue for that. The other thing is coaches are always looking for the best players to fill their roster. Yes this was a pay to attend event but it was well run and worth it in my book. I think there are different levels of interest. Invite to Prospect day is a start. A personal email stating "we saw you play an are interested in you, you should come to our camp" is the next level. After that if the coach says, I can't call you but please call me... And then when a coach calls your HS coach and says we like this kid he needs to come to our camp is yet another level of interest. That being said, if you like the school and there's any level of interest from that school, I think you have to continue to pursue it. Mine is committed already so I will share a few thoughts. You are only being recruited when a coach calls your coach and asks you to call him. If that call goes well they will ask you to visit the school. Prospect days are a good start, but please be clear that prospect days make the coaches money and they want as many kids there as possible. It might make everyone feel good to get the prospect day emails, but the truth is my kid (again already committed) received many of them and some, said we saw you play at xxx, when he wasn't even at xxx event. Best way in my experience- understand your kids level and look for schools that fit his play level and academic level. If your kid is a great player but having B and C grades, probably wouldn't waste time on Ivy. SO just be realistic about both. Then email those coaches in advance of the events you attend and then follow up with an email after those events. Give your club coaches a heads up on the schools you want, if they are interested, they will call. If they are not, you have your answer. It is extremely frustrating going to these events and then hoping your kid did well enough to get recognized by some school. You need to be proactive...my two cents, best of luck to all your boys. Good advice all the way around. Prospect days can be great or a waste of time, but depending on schedule they can also be a great way to get some good coaching so the value really depends on your son's overall situation. Some schools actually do use them as serious evaluation tools, and as we all know you can't always showcase your skills in a tournament based upon the flow of the games, did the right coach happen to be watching at the right time, etc. That being said you are absolutely correct, you will know when a school is interested . They will contact either your club coach or high school coach. Our son just did the Prep School Showcase on Sunday and on Tuesday we had an email from his club coach with feedback from several schools. The other thing with prospect days is that your schedule and the schools might not match up which is true with our son this summer so he is doing two prospect days sort of on a flyer because he wants to be seriously considered by those two schools, and since he is being looked at by 6+ right now we have at least some sort of validation that we are not out to lunch in regards to his current ability to play in college.

How were the showcases this weekend? fl$, run with the best, and prep lax? Were they run well? Did coaches attend? Prep School showcase was very well attended. Saw many head coaches from a variety of top D1 programs including Ivies. Many other assistant D1 coaches as well. Many games had 30-40 coaches on the side lines. There where many D3 coaches as well from top schools. Prep School Lacrosse Showcase was disrupted a bit with the weather, but they still got in all of the games. There were a lot of coaches there and as you said in some cases 30-40 at a time watching games. This is a really good event.

I agree 100%. As for the event and the interest in my son it was after a coach/coaches approached him after games and spoke to him. He played very well and it was commented on by a number of people. The prospect days yes of course make money for the schools but its the first contact and where it goes from there. Asking for transcripts and coach information are a good sign of true interest. We have also received those emails we saw you play at such and such event and he wasn't even there. All I am trying to say is the event was good and my son did receive some decent prospect day invites after the event. I know many players have yet to receive any. Assess how your kid did and go from there. Next step hopefully will be contact with travel coach and high school coach. Its a start.

I agree, if top schools are calling your son's coach and expressing interest, you're heading in the right direction. Without question, it is validation on what level your son can play at. They aren't calling your son's coach for therapy, they're doing their job.

What is difference between HHH and Dukes? I always thought they were the same, but listed here as separate squads. A lot of the commits are often listed as having played for "Dukes HHH".

1st round of the LI SHowcase and I have to say, it seemed like way to many kids to make honest, realistic determinations and cuts after only all kids playing 2 25 minute games. They really should have limited the number of players. My son is a goalie and he seemed to be one of roughly 14=16 goalies there. Each team had 2-3 goalies minimum so minimal playing time and no chance to get into any rhythm before being pulled out for the next kid.

So every time the other team had the ball they scored. Great for our goalies. On a whole, I would have to say that that was the biggest waste of time my son has ever been a part of. The grass was 6 inches high!!! There were barely any lines on the fields. No balls on end line. Refs calling stupid procedural penalties. Having been through this before, it's clear that the picking of the team will have little to do with yesterdays cluster. That was just another money grab, somebody walked away with a nice payday. From the games I saw, no one was really a superstar. So it will all be about reputation, connection and current committed status.

Goalie is the most political of all the positions in the showcase because only 4 make the final 40 and only 2 make the team. Coaches running the event lobby for there own guys.

Its a showcase game where 20 from Nassau play 20 from Suffolk in front of an insane amount of college coaches at SUNY Farmingdale. There are 2 rounds of tryouts that each get a lot of college coaches attending as well.

two poles? Hah. My son's first game we only had one, and we had two attackmen playing defense. Ridiculous. Also, I saw a [lacrosse] of a lot of the same helmets playing on the same teams. How fair is that as this was an individual event, not a team event. 4 goalies picked out of 14 or so attending and each goalie getting about 10-15 minutes of total playing time. No way that is a fair sampling. There were no standout goalies because none of them got the chance to play enough to get into any type of flow.

the LI showcase should have two teams one for uncommitted players and one for committed players. It gives some kids a chance to show themselves in front of college coaches That is a great idea!! The only problem is most committed players are still trying to get better offers and enter events as uncommitted. There were a ton of committed players in the showcase last fall at Farmingdale that was for uncommitted only.

Whether he gets a call or not it was a good experience for him and now he knows what to expect. Good luck to all that make the team. Go SUFFOLK!!!

I am the parent of a 2019 goalie. I read this thread to see what is coming down the pike. Upsetting to here this about a showcase that is not club driven. However, I am NOW a believer that the goalie spots are given to the boys that the coaches want. From what I have seen so far of the club showcases, the best goalie of the day has not gotten selected to advance. Whether it be 3d, Brine etc. I was hoping things would get better when he began playing in HS.

Todays Nassau tryouts were great. Short sweet and to the point. Did my son make the final 40 No, but it was fair and the selection process seemed good. All teams seemed well balanced. There were a few no shows, but it is what it is. He played in 3 games and no team seemed to be lacking any particular position. All teams of the 6 had between 16 to 18 kids. A fair number to get everyone a decent amount of reps. Good luck to the boys who made it to the next round.Go Nassau. AM

Todays Nassau tryouts were great. Short sweet and to the point. Did my son make the final 40 No, but it was fair and the selection process seemed good. All teams seemed well balanced. There were a few no shows, but it is what it is. He played in 3 games and no team seemed to be lacking any particular position. All teams of the 6 had between 16 to 18 kids. A fair number to get everyone a decent amount of reps. Good luck to the boys who made it to the next round.Go Nassau. AM Laying it on a little thick Nassau will be smoked by Suffolk, as usual

what amazes me is that there are only 32 kids listed when they said 40 will be asked to the second round. The other grades have 42 kids going to the second round so what is going on????

So let's figure this out there were 32 boys asked back to a second round "top 40" Nassau tryout today. How does that make sense when the other grades asked 42 boys each to their second round.

If that's the case then this showcase is a farce just like the rest. Organizers don't you get it people are tired of the no show add-ons. Cheapens your event. Let the kids play. You will be surprised how much these players change in 6 months. Especially with puberty hitting. So should we award American Pharaoh the Triple Crown. Needs to run the race. Same for tryouts. Need to be there to be considered.

All that is asked by the parents who pay for their child to participate in these events is a fair tryout. Not some pre determined money grab. Put the best players on the field that actually tried out. We know this is almost impossible but it would be nice.

I believe that players that were in the LI Champioship get a pass to the second round - between Manhassett - CSH ad Syosset that could be the eight kids you are lookig for
