Lavey wins Laxfest beating a Texas team that was rolling through everyone with kids a year or 2 older than most and Orange in the finals. Pretty impressive job.

Lacey wins?? More like the kids who played won, Lacey just happened to be the coach. That guy is only concerned about coaching his own children

Who is Lavey??

Who is Lavey? He's the coach that left his team after their first game and wasn't there for the playoff or championship games. Lavey DID NOT win....that group of boys WON! Congrats to them and the asst. coaches who stepped up and coached two great games.

Just happy the cheating Texans went home empty handed. Legacy boys played their hearts out and and got a well deserved win.

All the teams looked good. Lots of talent in that age group.

anyone idea which 2026 LI express team is going to Devens, MA this coming weekend?

Not ORielly

Express North

are they good for that level?

My son played them this past weekend. I thought for the age they were decent. They had a few that were clearly above the rest. But I think at this age that's a given.

Any ideas for north shore of Nassau for boys 2026 team ?

What are some good mid Level teams?

I think going into 4th grade you have many options. Im sure you'll hear bad things about every team out there. I tend not to listen to advice on here as everyone is out to get someone. A good coach is a MUST at this age. Skills will come as they grow. In my opinion Legacy, Empire and Express have great programs at this age

Sharks have good coaches and nice families. Good b level team where kids get better

Shore to shore is adding younger teams, may be worth looking at for Nassau based club.

91 has best program at this age they win all the shirts!!

Anyone know anything about Tenacious Turtles? Looking for something in eastern Suffolk?

Look for a team that allows your son to grow as an athlete from year to year. Wins and losses in club ball are meaningless that's why the prize is a shirt. Make sure the Coaching staff is good and age appropriate some great coaches can't coach kids. If your not happy with a program leave that one and go to another there are tons just look at the amount of tryouts. Make sure the parents on the sidelines are good people because you will be spending a ton of time with them. If your kid is a middle of the road kid he may be replaced and that is ok every kid progresses and grows at a different rate it's not the end of the world.

The 2023 shore 2shore team is excellent. They compete with all the AA teams. They had 5/6 kids on The Long Island Brine team that just won in Richmond. I have to imagine they will be trying to develop competitive teams for the other age groups as well. Def a legit option for Nassau kids.

Stop. Shore2shore is b-level at best

They played in the AA bracket bracket at NLF. My older son played against them. They are a very good team.

I watch them play in the AA bracket at NLF. They are a very solid team.

The Express coach they use for the younger kids is great at developing kids. May be spread too thin but excellent at developing at a young age.
