But just not until next year!

Very doubtful. Why waste 3 years monitoring kids when it takes less than 1 to evaluate them.

No one is watching 2021s after the rule change - sorry

You are lucky to have 3 more years to improve your game not just worry about "being seen".

I 100%agree with you. The only way any coach is going to see any 2021 games this summer is if there is a 2021 game on a field that is adjacent to a field where there are 2020/2019 teams playing. No way any coach is wasting time looking at any kid that they cannot talk to for over 2 years. Too much can change in those 2 years, this is why it will be so much better for the coaches

Unless you count on these guys...........

Come to our Camps

Every game will have 6 college coaches rotating players, coaching, and refereeing. When college coaches working our event aren't coaching or refereeing, they are on the sidelines recruiting.

With only 4 fields in play at a time and all fields right next to one another, you are guaranteed to get looks from dozens of college coaches.

FL$ will hire 48 college coaches to work the event. With no more than 100 players per grade at the event, the college coach to player ratio is second to none.


Yeah. OK

Week 4 standings:
DC Express 4-0
Crabs 4-0

Any anticipated turnover after tryouts for Madlax, VLC, DC Express and NL?

I am close with a D1 college coach. He has every intention of watching the '21's play this summer.

Surprising to See API beat Koopers this weekend 11-8. Good win for them

if you don't think the college coaches will be at every game your crazy...Now they don't have to commit to anything, they can track the kids progress and growth and have zero commitment. But the club coach will now be able to say to little jonnie, why do you think coach x is here? He's interested in you. Also the clubs that have the big tournaments ie: Crabs will always have plenty of coaches at all age groups because they know they are seeing good teams. Believe me they will be there.

Fake news. What events do you promote?

On twitter

Only turnover would be best kid for NL or VLC wanting to. I e to DCE or ML - so can play in a AA team. NL and VLC far behindZ. DCE beat VLC couple weeks ago at Bullis 17-2 without starting midfield line. VLC better than NL........

VLC beat NL by 1 this spring in HoCo league where NL had 3 subs due to injury/spring break

NL isn't on the same level as DC Express Black or ML Capital, but they aren't behind VLC

Agree - both are B Teams and equal.

VLC beat NL twice this spring. And in the game where NL was missing players due to spring break, so was VLC. Shocker.

How many kids does VLC carry? They still had 10+ on the sidelines during the game they were supposedly missing so many

Who cares - both teams are pretty bad. Waste of time to talk about either.

Someday when your kid is in HS you'll perhaps realize what an idiot you are to be arguing about the quality of a 8th grade boys lax team.

You are right my kid use to play for 91 A team parents are crazy, cone 10th grade my kid will be best player of anyone on that team. Fact.

Someday when you're dead you'll realize life was pointless.

So True.

Crabs over Bethesda Express in championship 12-6.

The holdback 2021 team wins. Too bad they aren't playing in the grade year they should be in, 2020 for most of the team. And this team has a few knuckleheads on their roster.

The Bethesda schools pioneered hold backs. Mater dei leads all schools in total holdbacks. Bethesda can complain about a lot of things but not about playing against holdbacks.

Next year is HS so all the holdback stuff gets put on HOLD for Varsity. Not much advantage in Varsity for age wise 10th grader over other higher grades. But holding back does help if you are going for JV first year then Varsity next. Being a JR ..I mean Sophomore does help when going out for Varsity in your second year of HS.

Its funny when you hear Booker announcing in MIAA talking about how the player is only a Soph's Jr;s etc...knowing full well that many players are actually a grade ahead age wise. One interview he was talking to player about it being his Birthday. Asked how old was player....19.. It was March or April...Good news at least he wasnt a double holdback. Dont think that question has been asked again.

MIAA is holdback central. The Varsity line ups are full of kids who should be in College. Joke.

Keep crying.

This holdback thing will never change. As will the fact that MIAA lacrosse players have peaked in life and rarely contribute to society. Have you heard Rambo try to speak (sorry another topic). Other than providing demand for pot.

Rambo is from Philly?? Not in MiAA and is a Catholic HS

Is your contribution to society chatting anonymously on a lacrosse forum? Your MIAA grad boss provides you with a living, so there's his contribution.

As I have heard in the stands at a MIAA school once while playing a Public school and losing. ( not lacrosse)...

Thats ok....Thats alright..... We're going to be your boss one day!

Sun shines on a dogs behind every now and then

Uneducated public school dropout you must be.

Mommy and Daddy keep telling those MIAA boys that? Funny that just to compete on a field they have to be a year older...doesnt say much about their overall future.

Everyone knows at this time that the MIAA is full of kids playing sports that are usually older than the public school kids in any HS grade and frankly older than any grade all the way to prefirst. The only grade that is the same in MIAA schools and Public is Kindergarten. LOL

In the past I dont think it was even on the radar of anyone , even the MIAA own people didnt care as many did it. It had nothing to do with anyone outside the MIAA schools.

Once Youth lacrosse started going grade base ( actually the Jerks at Howard County Recreation HOCO ) started it all with their grade base league. One of the original Directors of HOCO has a held back kid in MIAA. Wonder if that had anything to do with HOCO going grade base instead of age like every other league in Howard County. JERKS! HOCO gets the Hall of Shame for Lacrosse oin MD...

Anyway once the older MIAA kids were shoved down the throats of everyone outside of the MIAA. That was it. Now everyone knows about the edge that the MIAA has with older kids. Not only is it out there. It is getting worst as more parents are holding their child back at prefirst or reclass at 8th.

The hodlback thing isnt going away anytime soon. Get use to it!

Being a world class cheapskate, forcing your kid through a 100 year old government curriculum doesn't bode well for yours either.

Wait, what in your son's future will be by birth year other than candles on the cake?

True dat
