I'm bringing up the following info as a way to counteract the yj bragging, to show that there are VERY GOOD players at other clubs besides yj. Integrity has 7 2019 commits so far: Two to the University of Florida, two to the Naval Academy, one to Penn State, one to Jacksonville and one to the University of Hartford. I know the number is only 7, but Integrity is a small club with only one team per age group. So, get over yourselves yj parents. By the way, I'm not an Integrity parent. I just saw their posting and checked out their website. For a small club, they have an impressive list of commits at all ages. From my research, it looks like most clubs send their players to the same type of colleges, regardless of which club they play for.

Is this a joke . Not sure anyone has ever said any club has all the very good players . They have said that some clubs have more good players than others .YJ 2019 top team has 22 commits , that's just from the blue team and I would guess MD had about the same .

It's not a numbers contest, yj mommy. Which schools are the little bees going to? The point that is being made is if your daughter is a good player and plays for a solid, or better, club team she will probably wind up attending one of the same schools that the obnoxious parented yj kids attend. I tell ya...with the yj people EVERYTHING is a freakin' contest. Jeez, get over yourselves.

I think this poster said their kid was NOT on Mass Elite but that his/her daughter played w some of the girls at Under Armour. So I think this was a very reasonable, unaffiliated opinion. Some of those commits you refer to had offers from North Carolina and other places you might deem to be quite good lax schools. They chose other places. Different choices for different families, and no "right" answer. Just to clarify, Mass Elite generally draws from south and west of Boston, including Rhode Island. Providence is only about 35-40 minutes from where ME practices. They get the occasional players from the north side of Boston, but the traffic can be tough for practice. So probably a bit more "regional" than clubs in other areas, but not crazily so. The 2019 ME team happens to be a very strong class for the program. Where most grades at Mass Elite are good but in the second tier of clubs behind the YJs etc, I think it is fair to put the 2019s in the top tier category. They can generally play with anyone and if they were to shorten their bench like some clubs do, I would guess can beat anybody on any given day. Not that lists are the end all be all, but two of the players are on the top 20 sophomore Young Guns IL list and that doesn't include the girl that was the overall MVP at UA, someone who probably could/should be on there. Not looking to get in an argument, just saw these posts on here and wanted to put some perspective around it. For the record, my daughter plays for Mass Elite, but bounces between our "A" and "B" teams. The age group all practices together and tournament rosters are set for each tournament separately. Unlike other programs where the teams are set for the season. Girls get moved up and down throughout the year depending on who signs up for a tournament and how they have been progressing. So I know these girls and families pretty well. They are a good group. Sometimes frustratingly so

You people are ridiculous , look at the rosters , you have 2 kids from YJ top team playing and the better 2nd teams are not even there . I would bet MD the same thing .

2 kids from yj top team playing?? not true.

Whenever they lose the excuses fly faster than a bullet. For a club with 1000 players they never seem to have a full team, especially when they lose. That's very odd to me, and if I was a yj parent I'd have some questions for cr.
