This will be the first year for the 2nd team.

This will be the first year for the 2nd team. When I said "still doing" I meant that they were still following the plan from a few months ago that said 2 teams. I agree O'Reilly gets shafted but he would rather help develop kids lax skills than just have the kids try and win a tee shirt. Also, not every kid moved to Channy....some stayed with O'Reilly. To be honest I would want no part of Channy coaching a 4th grader.

He has only had B level teams even when they were the only team in the organization. Yes he works with the kids, but why then is he always second fiddle?

Both teams will be very good. Channy's team will be one of the better teams in the grade and O'reilly will be very good. Best of luck to all the kids and their teams.

Any team on the grade level is beatable, even by town teams.

Their pool can't be that big and are you basing their rank solely on Forsberg? What else did they win?

Why play travel when the best team in the grade is in our own backyard?

Re: Boys 2025- 4th Grade Fall 2016/ Summer 2017 Anonymous #182086 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Because in the next few years you will see the kids leave town and go to travel and good luck finding a spot unless you are a superstar. Hard to shine when there are over 100 kids at tryouts and they've never seen you before. Enjoy town travel.

And yes, we understand they did well in one summer tourney.

And yes, we understand they did well in one summer tourney. Beating the second best team twice makes your team the best. That's how rankings work. Until Blast can beat that little town team they will remain #2. Plus, Blast didn't bring in enough talent to be considered a real improved team. My guess is the Geese take a step up.

Re: Boys 2025- 4th Grade Fall 2016/ Summer 2017 B_O_T_C #182139 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Blast had an off day. Neither head coach was at Forsberg. A know-it all-dad who isn't even on the coaching roster was "coaching" and the kids played sub par. The kids don't like the guy. Most parents don't either. It happens and Manhasset won. Big congrats and awesome for them. Don't kid yourself, Manhasset isn't better than Blast or Geese. And if they are - maybe they should enter in real tournaments like Laxfest?
