At this age level everyone should play to learn the game. Having a 2nd grader sit on the bench for half the game is not what 2nd grade team should be about. As they get older, the better kids play more and the not so good kids sit more. You're kid is not on the team, and therefore you should not be concerned with Igloo. My son is on the team and I have been around with multiple teams with my older son, and I can say that this club and coaching as well as caring for the kids is the best I have seen. I have gotten a lot for my money!! There is no owner involvement, but who cares when my son loves Tony and Tony cares about my son, and everyone gets equal playing time. get back to us in a couple of years and let us know if they still care ...its all a business and everyone is replaceable! and if you have an older son you should know this already. I bet your kid got cut from the 2nd grade team.

Re: Boys 2026-2nd Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016 Anonymous #173545 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Your over inflating the expenses. If travel lax isn't that profitable then why are teams popping up all over the island. The bigger clubs are making a fortune and everyone is trying to get a piece of the pie. And yes my son is on the igloo 2026 team and we're not happy. To think that every single parent on the team is estatic about the coach and club is just ignorant. If your happy, good for you. Get ready for a 3000 bill next year. We'll be moving on. Best of luck

Re: Boys 2026-2nd Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016 B_O_T_C #174920 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A If this is the same Empire 2025/2026 team that played at Lax Fest in the 2025 B division, than it is a team that appears to be almost exclusively 2026 (or even younger), and had absolutely no one that appeared to be a good 2025 player. I get the argument about playing down, but this team can't compete at 2025 B, based on my first hand observations, so use that as a guide. Any 2025 on this team were low-end/low skilled players. Not a knock on the kids, just an observation.

[****]. As a parent, I will say this... The club stayed true to the core and the team. Unlike two other bigger clubs, they did not add 7-9 players throughout the year (or for last tournament) to bring the rosters to 25+. Won more than lost, but did not dominate. Lot of talent on this team and parents all got along. Kids developed individually. Looking forward to future...
