Is it better to be the top gun on the B team or a complimentary player on an elite A team? How do you balance having fun versus grinding to be seen by some coach. I feel if you have talent you will be spotted at some point in the process whether it's A team, B team, or a camp/prospect day.

Read it again donkey. The question was not about TG. Assume you are a YJ parent. It is better to be a player on an A team if it is M&D, YJ, Skywalkers or Heros. Those clubs will have the most coaches watching them for the next few years. People are going to respond that it doesn't help if they don't play, but those people don't realize that once showcases start, every girl has to play. That's why it's so stupid all the arguments right now about who is the best 2018 or 2019 team. They aren't playing the same that they did in championship tourmanents.

I was the parent who handed out the team brochures to the college coaches at summer and fall tournaments for my daughter's club team. I've overheard many, many conversations between college coaches, and not once did I hear one of them say anything about an "A" or "B" team player. They're just looking for good talent,and they don't care where it comes from. I did hear quite a few talk about the y2k parents though,and none of it was positive. Those coaches see and hear almost everything. Be careful how you act yj and Heros parents.

Sorry about that.It was in response to just another parent bashing a bunch of young ladies.If you want to put a coach or director down that fine.I think the kids should be left out of it. only an [lacrosse] hole would say some thing like that about a bunch of 13 year old girls!

Those r mostly a joke too. 20 minute games where teams shorten their bench = stupid.

The small girls cannot compete with that, and is exactly what the team needs

One moved up and she is an attack. One defenseman from outside the program was added. The defense has 4 excellent players and will be fine, they added an excellent goalie as well so no drop off there anymore. Added 3 middies that are excellent players. They will be very good again.

If you get delegated to play B or C team, do yourself a favor and look to other clubs. CR only cares about the revenue from B and C players, not the team. We jumped to a new club last year, and my daughter has had a much better experience.

Completely false statement. See commitments and you will see A B C team players who are going to play college ball. Including C team girls going to D1 programs. If we're going to make statements can they try and be accurate. That also applies to other programs which have girls committed from there lower teams too.

Glad it worked out for you but on the flip side it looked like there were quiete a few returning players at tryouts . The grass isnt always greenier but there are many options. Would also say that most programs treat their B, C teams the same way and it's All about the revenue no matter where you go.

This is getting old. 1-Girls from the 2nd/3rd teams are getting recruited with the help of CR, unlike BS who doesn't even return calls. 2-The 3&4 2021 YJ teams will probably beat most other LI teams since they are now made up of all new girls that jumped from TG, TLC, TE and 91.

Really? The C team is basically the same as it was last year. 6 new girls and a couple of B.

Hate to break this to you but the 3rd and 4th YJ teams will not beat the othe LI clubs like Lib, TE and TG. They will play in the lowest possible brackets as they should. I also wouldn't expect much in they way of coaching, development and quality of play on those teams.
