Not the quoted parent here but I am proud to wear my daughter's SW gear. She has worked her butt off for a spot on the team and continues to do so daily. She is proud to be a Skywalker.

At least they'll wear their SW swag at work. What C2 or Flamingos swag are you getting?

I receive a nice flamingo shirt. Difference is I am fit, trim and good looking. Most SW are kinda fat, out of shape individuals who are not good looking but talk a lot of trash. Merry Christmas

That's a good one. I guess you are more into watching the parents than the games. What's your opinion of other clubs? I think MnD are probably the best looking - then comes heros or maybe TLC. What do you think of the LI parents?

Interesting indeed. Do tell which team you speak of as "clumsy and just learning how to stick check" There could be more then one team that plays like this? That would be a systemic coaching failure. "Fierce and aggressive" must still be played within the perimeters of the rules. Just because a certain team (SW) can't beat another team EVER, does not mean that the special "fierce and aggressive" SW hacking plan should be implemented.

But now it makes sense...it just "fierce and aggressive" being taught along with your players going through their clumsy stages of life. My bad; the girls at this age will just have to accept loosing their front 2 teeth because of a stick hack to the face, while the SW girls work out an awkward phase in life. So give me a break

Aggressive play is great. I like it. But stop all the crying and feet stomping when said play is returned. And if some of your kids loose teeth or get hurt, just mark it up to "fierce and aggressive" coupled with "clumsy and just learning to stick check". I am certain you would understand.

SW are the YJ of Maryland. Cry, cry, cry...

So do you care to fess up to the team you are referring to as being unjustly criticize for going through their clumsy stage in life?

Typical SWs: its not our fault, not fair, our kids were cheated is why we loose...blah, blah, blah.








C2 mom/dad at it again. your are referring to the 22 blue team, correct?. its not enough that your 22 team beats SW, you and the other C2 parents have to complain about every foul like it should be an automatic red card. C2 parents whine like this against every team they play. SW never has this issue against ANY OTHER TEAM! SW has had some knock, down drag out games against M&D, TLC, Heros, NY teams and PA teams and girls from both team get knocked down and they get back up and keep playing, not roll around on the ground like they were just shot...thats were the tough love part come into play. see you in the spring snowflake.


My daughter plays for a Baltimore based club team and we have several friends who play for a variety of other clubs in town. Every single parent that I know who has a daughter in the 2022 age group shares the same opinion of the SW 2022 team: they do not play within the rules, commit cheap fouls, and most games against them become downright dangerous for the opposing team and often result in girls getting injured to the point of having to come out of the game. If the refereeing is even average, they (SW) take themselves out of the game by giving up possession over and over again due to not playing according to the rules. They beat themselves. I, too, am all for teaching girls to play fast, aggressive lacrosse but I have to wonder what is going on at SW practices.

if you are wondering what goes on at their practices why don't you go to one if you are so concerned, the practice schedule is on the SW website

They do not have the moniker Skyswipers for no reason. Even teams from Long Island and Philadelphia know the reputation of SW. It is not a good one when it comes to how they play. Yes they have talented girls, are coached well, will end up a good lacrosse schools, but they do not need to play the way that they are.

its playing the way they do that gets them to good lacrosse schools. The LI, NJ and Philly teams play the same way and their parents never complain about the style of play.

As the mother of a SW player, I will admit that the girls are coached to use questionable tactics. They are coached to push the boundary on legal/illegal checks and how to get away with certain things. If you watch college games, these same things are going on in those games so the way I look at it, they are being prepared for the future.

I have coached against SW's teams for the past 10 years at various age groups and my daughter's teams have played against them for 6. In no way have I ever seen dirty play from any of their players, just raw determination and phenomenal interior passing. They have certainly raised the bar for me and my teams and I'm grateful that my players and daughter get a chance to compete with them. Their organization is well revered nationally talent wise. Yes, you will have the haters, most of them parents of "Suzie go to Goal", but coaches in general have a great deal of respect for them, unless they are "parent coaches"!

Keep up the great job Mike and Molly. Too bad your location of practices was not ideal for our family.

No way this is from a SW parent. My daughter plays for SW and switching was a massive upgrade from her former club. The level of organization (Molly) and the emphasis on fundamentals, stick skills and conditioning are why we are happy. They play in all of the best tournaments and seem to have good connections with the coaching community. If you live in central Maryland, M&D and SW are light years ahead of everyone else.

As for being taught rough play (which is a total fallacy), let the referees worry about that.

Sorry you feel that way, but yes my daughter does play for SW. Not sure what grade your daughter is, but if it hasn't happened yet, just wait. Never did I say they didn't emphasize fundamentals and especially conditioning. But the truth is, they do teach the girls to be a little rough and to push boundaries with regards to physical play. I don't look at it as a bad thing necessarily, but it is common practice.

This is by far the most far fetched post I've read on this Skywalkers site. You have got to be a troll of all trolls, oh and an imposter. Please find better things to do.

Far fetched? If you dispute this your daughter either doesn't play for a Skywalkers Blue team or if she does she is still in middle school or younger. I've had 3 daughters play for SW. They have all done very well and been recruited. They were all coached the same way.

Right because indoor is a great indicator about how teams perform on the field. From the small rosters to no draws between goals it's barely the same sport.

LOL... I stand corrected. Yes, they beat a couple “B” teams and the M&D 2024 Red. And if I am not mistaking, isn’t the red team their “B” team, let alone a 24? All the information is listed on Tourney Machine. What really matters is what happened when they played against the big girls teams.

I am certain the girls had a great time, which is really what matters. Even if the parent the parents think it wasn’t fair.

Didn't Top Guns get smoked when they played M&D Black? Go back to the LI forums. Why you on here bragging when you lost too?

No worries. The future is always bright for the younger SW teams. That’s called coaching. They develop into mentally/physically strong young ladies. When you daughter commits to “crap-u” or “$$$$-state” you won’t be questioning a game that occured during their 7th grade season, hey but good luck!

Thank you for your input Molly/MM, however I am pretty sure you don't need to have come from SW to go play for a top notch program. Your "crap-u" and "$$$$-state" comment is beneath you.

What's the explanation for SW only having one top team currently? The 21's are very good but the 19s, 20s and 22s and younger are all mediocre. Is it that there are just more options now other than the berating and awkward hugs for the old creeper?

LOL. And what do you call someone, that calls someone a "stunad", while using the possessive adjective "your"?

This is basic grammar school stuff. YOU ARE (or you're)(contraction) looking like the real stunod.

Thank you all for insightfulness into Skywalkers. For people who have never had a kid in the program you all certainly know everything about the club. I am sure the club your daughter is on is perfect and all the parents are perfect as well. From all us Skywalkers' parents we thank you for not being a part of Skywalkers and wish you the best with your club. Please go start a forum specifically for your club. The directions are in the menu bar at the top of the page.

Does anyone have any idea how you would go about playing lacrosse for McDonough?
Do you need to go there for middle school?
Do they "already know about you" if you start in 9th grade?
Is there such a thing as a "walk-on" there?
My daughter doesn't play club for M&D- commonly assumed a feeder team for McD.
Lets assume we start there in 9th. My daughter hasn't played with any of the other M&D girls (but we have played against and won) so its a bit intimidating (its a girl thing) to being a new girl and not getting passed or played the ball because the others don't know you.

Robinson hand picks his players and the rest fill in. If he doesn't know the kid, chances are slim of playing for him. Always an exception though. Good luck.

Everyone who tries out, makes a team. Either varsity, JV or freshmen team...etc. It may not be the team you like and might have 50 kids on the team, but you make it. With that being said, if you are good enough, you will be noticed. And yes, some are already slotted for the varsity team. But you will never know until you shell your 30K and give it a try. And yeah...good luck.

Do you need to go there for middle school? No playing in middle school has no impact on playing in high school.


Do they "already know about you" if you start in 9th grade? The coaches attend 8th grade games during the summer and fall.
