You do that buddy. I think the the 6'4 230 lbs 2019 defenseman Edge has will send him into next week. lolol . Kid is a man child. He was the talk of the NSCLA "youth" tournament.

He was the talk of the tourney, not for his size, but for driving himself to the tourney

Heard they are legal to vote, join the army and buy booze. Get off it...they are 14 and some turning 15. How anyone can talk about edge and gloss over Crabs and the rest is pure and simple nationalism. You clowns don't call out our own US clubs for doing it but hate on the Canadians. It gets old. It's the wild west, no rules. Blame US Lacrosse.

I know the team 91 2019 kids and not one of them is a hold back. Express is also a team that has a few if that but other organizations for 2019s are mot doing the right thing

Most 8th graders are still 13

Have you read the crabs thread? They are being called on it. They even just played Edge and called them out as having many older players, but explained they weren't whining, just pointing it out as to why they lost a game to them. It's all a joke. I hope there are more and more tournaments that start asking for age verification. At the very least, publish rosters with birthdates so all teams know what they are playing against. If there are no age limits, let's at least be transparent with the rosters.

2019 is basically U-14 for this season. Correct? The birthdate cutoff for U-14 is Sept 1, 2000

If this is the case, are you 100% sure the current roster has nobody born before this date. If there is even one player born before this date than the team in not a U-14 team. Remember, holdbacks can happen any time including starting Kindergarten late.

Just refuse the game. Walk off the field in protest.

Team 91 2019 definitely has a hold back.

During the round-robin games in April that were hosted by the Hopkins coaching staff they requested that clubs only bring true 2019s, no reclasses.

Apparently they college coaches don't want to watch kids play down either.

The kids turning 15 are playing down but that must be ok if you also allow them to join the army and buy booze at that age.

He's no man child, He is a big 16 yo kid playing against 14 yo. Take him out the on the wing and dodge him all day long

Things people were probably talking about:

"I wonder why he can't play against kids his own age?"
"How would he do covering the top 2018 attackmen?"
"He must not be as good as the 20+ 2018 defensemen who have already committed to D1 programs, otherwise he would be playing with boys his age."

Interesting. A team is considering 2019 simply because the program registers them in that division?

Holding a kid back is a parental decision. Registering in a younger division is a program decision. Also, a holdback is actually in the correct HS grad year division.

You are dead wrong. The 2019 Edge players are entering 10th grade and some are older. Just ask the parents on the sideline.

Which 3D team is in the 2019 division for Lax Clash?

They recruit older kids for their teams, just look at the Edge website. Stay in Canada where you belong.

At Young Guns, at the 2019A level, lets agree that only boys born after 9/1/00 can play. What do you say, eh?

From the 2018 thread...

I have heard the 2018 Long Island Team is in shambles. Does anyone even know who is on the team. It's not posted anywhere. Most other regions have posted their teams.

Think they are talking about Brine.

Any news on Brine 2019/ middle School? Did a lot of kids bail for JR?
Would be nice to know before a 8 hour trip how the Tourney Teams will look.

Well I guess Sweetlax didn't get the memo. Every kid there was a reclass. But hey, only Edge Canada does it right?

Received a confirmation email with my sons jersey number tonight. Final Rosters are being posted on toplaxrecruits. Looks like they started posting girls tonight

Reclassifying and registering teams down are not one in the same. I deplore reclassifying for athletic advantage but those kids are actually in the 2019 grad year. Edge is not. their 2019 teams will graduate HS in 2018.

A rose sprayed with manure still smells like ($#@%), call it another name and it still stinks!

What Sweetlax team are you referring to? Because the 2019 team that played last weekend did not have a single reclass on the team.

I hear Northern California

The reclassed 2018 player is actually now a 2019 grad. You are correct, it stinks, but what is worse is a program that registers 2018 TEAMS down a year when they are not 2019. Do you not grasp the difference. Why don't all programs register all of their teams down a division?

Is that the team where some kid didn't have to try out because he was playing in a H S varsity game but was selected anyway? I think I heard something like that?

Heard from friends that True Blue 2019 is heading to Deleware with some new players. Maybe an early Mutiny against the coach, so glad we left.

why what happened? very curious. Who did they add?

They had a couple of Attackmen go down with injuries.

Brine LI NY team has 9 kids that were not selected from the original list?
The first LI team has 3 players on it that were not originally selected.
Why?
How?
Why would alternates not be pulled up to the first team?

Who's Coaches are most connected?

Who cares ?

you are cool!

i questioned this tonight and found out there were 3 players that had varsity games that day. I was told one rushed there after playing and the another had a night game, the third didn't have a game! I give the night game kid a pass; but I would guess they all earned it if they played varsity and BTW, I don't care if it was varsity for Brentwood, Valley Stream or North Babylon.

bring on the haters but look in the mirror, would the player made it anyway!!!

F all of you. That boy you biatched about is not on the list anymore. He deserved it.

Hey Mr. "Who cares" guy- why would you iinject your simple and comments in something you obviously have no need being involved in
Answer choices :
A) you are almost 11 years old
B) You just have the capacity to act like your 11
C) You are upset because the point was actually about a group of elite lacrosse players, which you have no experience with, so you have no contribution to the topic.
D) You can't fathom a conversation that points out that there are some suspect selection practices in the brine rosters.
E) You can only us single syllable words

Correct answer: B, C, D, E

To answer your above question --- I Care. So should anyone that spent time and money on something that's supposed to be a fair, merrit based tryout and a positive experience that should be beneficial to young lacrosse players

to answer the question about which 2019 3D team showed up at LAX Clash...the awful one... they went 0-3... good day of competition for most teams in the 2019 AA bracket... HHH looked strong...3 tribes as well, goalie was outstanding...fl$ continues strong play..Express looked great despite a lose, should be Express and Lax black in final tomorrow...HHH and fl$ looks to be a nice game and Outlaws black versus Leading edge will be a good one as well...awesome to see all these top tier teams doing it right and playing here at home...weather played a factor in late games (3Tribes/fl$), fields could be a mess tomorrow...

ok...so to the Tri-State Dad who tried to sneak his kids team into this laughable " top ten " list and think nobody would notice, the bill came due today with that nonsense at Lax Clash...TriState was handled easily by 3Tribes and fl$ and they could only manage a tie with Express 2020... here's your hat and coat, don't let the door hit you in the ***
