I was told that the Adelphi coach is taking these kids all the way through high school. If my son makes the team I think this will be a VERY competitive "A" team. Puhlease. TB is a joke at all ages. Only a small group from the south shore thinks otherwise. Rest don't take this team seriously.

Same kids as last year? Think it was 1 or 2. Not counting holdbacks. Just kids playing a grade down. Thanks

I k is my kid had a amazing experience and was taught the game. Much rather be on someone's A team than someone's C

My son went to a lax camp this year and met a couple of 6th graders. He saw them at 2023 Igloo tryouts and I had to spend all day telling my 10 year old how people cheat in life and its not fair, but keep doing the right thing yourself. Our family doesn't cheat!!! It's funny how kids cough up the unethical behavior of their parents. Way to go AA of Igloo for allowing this to happen. Another year of rigged tryouts.

Why would a club allow older kids on a younger team? I only see this as possible if the club advertises and plays by the USL guidelines and doesn't play on grade based tournaments. That said- don't call the team 2022 or 2023- call it a U-whatever.

If he is born after sept 1st that is fine Yes, that's fine as long as you're bringing him to a 2022 tryout. Otherwise, he's just a crappy 6th grader that can't cut it playing with kids his own age.

Re: Boys 2023-5th Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016 B_O_T_C #132009 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A It goes back to the holdback issue. Almost all teams in Maryland and North Carolina are majority hold backs-- like the other poster said-- until US Lacrosse makes changes-- it's more the rule than the exception these days.

I think it's ok if the team plays u based tourneys which most are outside ny.

Re: Boys 2023-5th Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016 Anonymous #132019 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Maybe. But then don't call yourself a 2023 team. Either be a grade-based team and take grade appropriate holdbacks but not older grade kids. Or be a U-based team and take age appropriate kids irrespective of grade. Can't do both legitimately. If igloo kids were playing down a grade then team should forfeit those grade based tourney wins on website. Period.

The question was asked by several people. There are multiple D1 commits. Anyway, this is a 2023 post. JC is coaching this 2023 True Blue "A" team, and from what I saw this A team is going to be very good.

Adding a few kids that got cut from true A teams doesn't make you an A team. From speaking with the parents, a lot of the new faces were not cut from other clubs. Most of the top kids were tired of the BS at other clubs, wanted real coaching, or happen to live nearby and were tired of traveling. Too bad you're afraid to post the team your kid plays on.
