Where was she committed to?3

No decent commits except for the Towson and one Fairfield. There are a few random schools that I've never heard of. These people are having their kids commit to a school just for bragging rights. Typical top guns behavior.

Princeton, Cornell, Yale & Army are random? Seriously?! I just don't understand why people post garbage that is so easily verified or disproved

Still waiting on an answer to my question. Where was the girl committed to? Right now all I hear is crickets.

People aren't posting garbage about TG. YJ lemmings are posting the garbage about TG. There's a huge difference between people and YJ. Like I said in an earlier post, the YJ lemmings sole purpose on BOTC is to discredit SS and dismantle TG. Sad, sad...and childish.

SS cousin told her she was no longer interested in playing for her at hofstra

Head scratcher? Never even heard of LaSalle? Why is it a good school because it's D1??? Stop it!!!

Not the school. The player

Hey Head Scratcher, sounds like the green eyed monster got a hold on you. Where's your daughter committed to?? Better check your head for lice.

I have a little more butt kissing and a couple more Hofstra camps to attend before BS will entertain my daughters college inquiries.

Here is a serious question. With only 1 year left of travel lacrosse, is it worth it to switch clubs? Many unhappy players between TG and Elevate girls. Can a switch of clubs help or hurt these girls?

Which club are you switching from TG or Elevate?

At that age, options may be a little limited or you may be going to an established team which may be a little hard for your daughter. There may be a few options but most clubs at that age will have one team in that age group except for TG, YJ and Liberty. Elevate will make a 2018/19 combo team but you know how that went this year with the 2017/18 team which is why they are so unhappy. Our story, we left Elevate 2 years ago and went to Liberty Red. This past summer was great and we had a lot of new kids. Since we had new kids there were NO clics at all. We had a lot of Elevate kids come over too last year so if your daughter was on Elevate she will know them. We had about 16/17 kids at every tournament (5/6 subs per game so lots of playing time). The kids were very committed and showed up to everything. There were kids from all over long island and in spite of what people say only a couple from Manhasset. We played in the right level at tournaments and had a lot of competitive games. Never got blown out and only blew out like 2/3 teams all summer. We also took advantage of the winter clinics at the HUB that Liberty put on as well as the winter indoor league. The 2018 Red and Black teams practiced together frequently. I think that Liberty Red team will add a few kids but I believe most kids will come back, not all but most as they had a really great summer. So what are the options - YJ will always have a place for you and I would guess at 2018 YJ will probably have 3 teams next year. as you said TG and Elevate have a lot of unhappy people. What does that leave fl$, they had a tough summer and would doubt they will have a lot of kids returning. Go to some tryouts and see what your daughter thinks. If your daughter likes playing, then it worth finding a place that makes her happy.

Did you guys have a top secret meeting somewhere to talk about how unhappy you are?

was she not at every practice ? yes she was. I would call that overseeing her teams. Kind of tough to be at games when you have multiple teams, playing in multiple states at the same time. As for being unapproachable, that is pure BS. I have spoken to each one of the directors at TG on multiple times and each time my question was answered or my concern was addressed.

No don't own any TG gear, have never enrolled my girls in any extra camps and don't live in one of the "favored"towns. but what I do have are realistic expectations of what all of these travel programs can and do provide. What I also have is two girls that have been involved in travel lacrosse for 6 yrs. One playing in college and the other currently going thru the recruiting process, both with purple. Yes the rosters are large some years and sometimes the coaching is not as seasoned as you would like, but it is no different at any other club. Is the black team in every age group given priority ? Absolutely. But doesn't CR show more attention to blue ? DG to black ? Or Chris Robinson of M & D to his Black teams ? Yes they do. That is reality. So either get used to it or move on to smaller club where you, not your daughter, can get all of the attention you need.

Would SS have fired her father if 18 Black lost in the finals of their tourney; as it was, it went to overtime and cuz made an outstanding save to prevent the loss. It's funny that BS still doesn't know the girls names.
