That answer doesn't suit you? The only teams that do fall tournaments are the high school age teams. 2017 and 2018 will be going to the presidents cup in Florida and the Navy Rivalry challenge in maryland. There are plenty of fall tournaments for all ages but if you want to go, you have to organize it yourself.

If you are a good player you are noticed. Every year new players have been selected. Encourage your daughter to try her best and see where you end up. Good luck!

I would strongly recommend trying out. There are 6-8 players that are a little ahead of everyone else at this point skill wise, but after that there will be spots available. New players are added every year why not yours.

I like to read these forums, they're quite informative.
My daughter played for a young team this year, The South Shore Surf, and we gave a Legacy Black a run for their money at Harbor links. All the girls are different and I really appreciate all the attention that the Surf coaching staff pays to each and every girl.
We are not beating TG or Yellow jackets top teams but our girls are from all over the Island and are growing closer and better each week.
IMO our smaller program, takes a lot of the pressure off these 12 year old kids. If you're a good player and concerned about playing time, you will get a lot of it with Surf.
At this age there is only 1 away tournament, and the whole season is only $650.00 with caring varsity coaches. The level of Competition for girls lacrosse on Long Island is high enough. Why do I need to travel to play another Long Island team?

Legacy Long Island doesn't have a Black Team and wasn't at Harbor Links. You might be referring to Legacy Lax out of the Hudson Valley. Not even remotely close to the same level as Legacy Long Island.

Legacy Long Island has a 2021 team?

never seen a legacy long island team playing at any high level tournament or level....

National Draw, Best of the Beach, The Grind, Project 120, Lax by the Sea, Nike Cup... Your right all low level. Tool!

Nope definitely long island

I stand corrected. It was Liberty Black

i believe legacy girls has a very solid bunch @2021 level, they picked off some top players from a few teams. Much chatter about that group, maybe will see what they have this fall.

Legacy did not have 2021 last year. Only 2022 and 2020

Look out YJ

Again, we didn't have a 2021 team last year

Big talk. When anyone actually beats YJ or M&D 2021 then talk all the smack you want. So far, that hasn't happened.

No one knows who took the invites, so stop trying to stir the pot and worry about the sinking TG ship. YJ team is a great team as is MD, no start up program is going to begin to talk smack, even before half the roster hasn't paid their deposit yet.

Legacy girls 2020 and 2021 have picked up some gamechangers- should be very competive teams for sure

Where did the new Legacy " game changers " come from ?

P.A.L.

Game changer is term highly dependent upon the team and level of competition that team would be facing. Drop an invisible kid from any clubs A team to B team and they will likely be a game changer. Are there any unknowns out there that would be considered a game changer at the highest level, say for the yj Tg or m&d top teams? Possible, but not too likely. At this age most of the very top "game changer" girls are well established. Two, three years ago you would get massive leapfrogging going on, the talent and athleticism should be apparent now and is mostly already sorted out. The term is relative and means different things to different people.

Ha ha ha have you taken a look at TG 2020 black? Majority of that team is now West Islip PAL girls. If you were being sarcastic you know the saying if you live in a glass house please don't throw stones.

2020 tg black is now 2020 legacy blue, 2020 west islip has become 2020 tg black -so true. how's 2021 looking- hearing it's the same tread?

Game Changer - you have no idea and yes she is at the highest level in a variety of sports. Talent and athleticism...hold onto your hats..... This unknown is known by many in other sports that she competes in at the highest level.

Highest level in 7th grade. Wow

bring it on the field. lets have a LI tournament with all of LI"s "top" teams and and let's see where everyone ends up in the end … put up or shut up.

Sounds like she chose the wrong club.

It's a shame that at the 7th grade level a child has to pick one sport in order to play at the highest level possible in that sport for the ENTIRE year. This specifically goes for LAX and Soccer. For an all around athlete and for this age group all the leagues should encourage their players to cross train. So maybe not to burn out - the right club was chosen at this point of time. 7th Grade it's a marathon not a sprint to the finish. Keeping all of the athletes healthy, interested not burnt out has to be considered in picking the right team.

Amen, thank you!

Ummmm isn't that what our girls have been doing for the last 3 years

What are you talking about the top teams are stacked with kids that are multi sport star athletes.

Igloo 2021 Girls ?

If Legacy is so good, why are they having additional tryouts?

What about them?

Igloo - "where our goal is to teach the boys to be gentlemen."

The boys are having additional tryouts not the girls, girls are already set and good to go. Meanwhile TG can't release rosters cause they have no girls.

And that applies to every age group.

Any word on elevate tryouts?

A lot of the top 21 elevate girls did not return and were not at tryouts. Going to be tough for them to be close to competing with YJ and TG. Not sure where they all went.

Competing with YJ 2021 and TG 2021 are two completely separate things. We've played both and one is a top team, the other not so much.
