If i did i waved my hand in front of my face and blew the whistle louder. After months of this, i think we are ready for the upcoming season. Good luck to all.

SA coach dodged a bullet with her as we all are witnessing with this public meltdown of being dismissed from a school where she thought she would reign supreme. There's a lot happening behind the scenes where kid is personally bad mouthing SA players and it seems they can't get a grasp on the behavior. This kid will not make it to UNC and this looks terrible on UNC as this girls reputation is terrible. I agree with the poster above that said, most kids in this recruiting age will avoid UNC because of this. Never knew SA academics standards were so high...can possibly be a good player in college? she runs circles around those other 9th graders...looks terrible on UNC? the same UNC that was giving out "A"s to kids not attending classes...Yup, i can see it now. Coach Levy offers a kid a scholarship, kid says no thanks coach, dont want to play with so and so...keep dreaming. You do know this kid went to another school before SA where her grades and behavior were just as bad right?, running circles? not so sure about that.. Kid does not have the body structure or weight as your average or on age 9th grader and throws body weight around to dominate or intimidate. No need to argue, lets revisit this in 2019 when it's signing day and we shall see. Cuse didn't want her, neither did quite a few other D1 schools. not too good a reputation from TG also, those parents were happy to see her go.and as you can see, her leaving did not affect TG at all. They did very well, got along well with each other and had a blast without her. hopefully by the end of the season those Pequa parents can say the same. TG is part of reason she is who she is, SS as a role model? same spoiled petulant child who was never told no, they did everything they could for her and were devastated when she left, don't let BS or SS tell you anything different, they were parading her all over the country as the #1 recruit in the age group. Team didn't like her because SS let her do whatever she wanted to and the ball was always in her stick to insure wins in close games or blowouts. Age group is full of backstabbers on both clubs, she was one of many who the knives were out for on the sidelines

Just like the Bull Shi*** national championship they claim they win every year when MD doesn't show to play. If a problem child can play and help the stature of the program there will always be a spot for her. She was stolen away with open arms

I think it will just make the game more physical, and girls can get away with more charging, ect. Not wanting to see anyone ever get hurt, but there is a consequence now of pain when a girl just puts her head down and charges to the cage. I think its more of a ref issue.

If people realize it does not prevent concussions but feel it will prevent ball or stick contact to a child's head, how is that bad? Older girls at the elite college level are not going to take to it initially. The cost is not much more than higher end goggles offered by Cascade and other companies. It should be a parent or player choice.

Don't be fooled. 98% of the team wants the ball passed around, the travel dads just want the stats for their daughters.

These HS coaches are ruining this team game but Shannon will be in Newsday Are you singling out a player or is that just the moniker you have given to a ball hog? Just remember how successful this strategy has been for the last 3 years. It works against all of the teams that won't make the playoffs. In the playoffs she will be face guarded and shut out once again. One man teams are the first to be eliminated in the playoffs. Teams with numerous options are the ones that are successful.

Anonymous Unregistered A	well..i look at it this way..if a kid on any AAU team grabbed a rebound and dribbled the length of the court for a shot or layup, bypassing open teammates, & that w/b sort of frowned upon and discouraged. Get away with it once and maybe no big deal....in travel lax, it happens constantly and folks cheer that selfish act..also, generally, in AAU its an adult coaching the team, so they may/may not have a more disciplined approach to coaching..not saying all, but seems to be case. And, yes, my daughter plays AAU as well...

Helmets on one team creates a competitive advantage. If I was a Coach or AD my team would not be playing against a team with helmets Helmets need to be either mandatory or completely not allowed. Who cares which they choose, but you can't have it both ways. Girls with helmets should not allowed to be to play against girls without helmets.

As far as coaching I have seen dreadful coaching antics with AAU/travel basketball coaches. I think when blanket statements are made they tend to be false and I think the original statement that "lax is the most selfish sport there is" is just plain stupid and requires a reply.

The ball hogs' parents are ALWAYS encouraging them to go to goal, go to the basket, go to the net. It's pretty obvious to all. And if the kid is a multisport player, you generally see it across all sports.
