Make stand or shut your mouth.


Or, and a more likely outcome, the couple dozen people that complain will still not be in the tournament, just like they aren't now already.

For us happy club customers, we'll just take exactly what we paid for, but thank you for your concern.


So much ..But a real easy one..Why does YOUTH CLUB Lacrosse need to go grade base to prepare you for HS and [College ( thats hilarious)] when every other Youth sport seems to get along fine with age to prepare you for High School.

well if you want to play age appropriate sports in the spring play golf, tennis, baseball, or track. Then you can compete with your child can compete with age based kids and you will all be happy...Its that easy, or you can stop complaining and work hard and good things will happen for your son...remember its your sons time to shine not yours.

Why is it hilarious, it is what exists and growing. Kids train for years in all sports at the club and private level. Start something different. Helicopter parents like winning now, real parents understand development. Go win now with you birthday buddies, that's totally cool. Many great stories about the old rec leagues told at many a dinner table.

Get a good look at the 2020 and 2021 Crabs brackets for Crabfeast - early games and cakewalk games. If you ain't cheating - you ain't trying.

Biggest scouting event of the Summer, let's have the top 5 teams play each other in round 1 and have a championship game that's like 22-3. Idiot.

Exactly. That way all the good teams play each other and who ever wins that division is definitely the best. Who cares what the score of the championship game is? WOuldn't you rather play good teams than get a free pass to the playoffs?

No, that is silly. They are all good teams. No, I'd rather see great semi's and final, since coaches traveled all the way to watch. I get it, you want it the other way. The rest of us just realize it makes no sense. Just go beat the teams in your bracket, and you're in, brother!

Thanks Hulk Hogan.

Many times coaches don't even stick around for the playoffs as they are on Sunday afternoon and they want to get home. They don't care who wins the damn tournament.

There are lot's of subpar teams at Crabfeast. Just funny that they always seem to be in the Crabs division.

News alert - Crab Daddy will need to do more to give the 2020s a smooth ride to the championship, one and done against Hawks! I'm sure he was hoping (plotting) for a Crabs-Looney's final as a win there would let them claim to be #1. Crush, RM's elusive white whale, continues to elude him.

They beat Crabs and that is enough given the Crabs attitude and behavior through the years.

Crabs 2020 aren't very strong anymore. See steady 2 players a year leaving Crabs and joining FCA. FCA is now team to beat. 2 years ago it was Russ and Kevin. Last year Nate and Eli. This year Cole and Jack. FCA will house Crabs when they meet.

Crabs entire scheme is reclassed kids. Dats it. Without holdbacks they are nothing. 91, FCA, Looneys, Hawks, Laxachusetts are much more talented. Not to mention RM is a complete arse.

All of the plotting and scheming and they still coming up short. Team will be remade again in off-season and be bigger, better and older in the fall.

Laxch beat Hawks, Crabs beat Laxch last week, Looney's beat FCA last week, FCA beat Looney's this week. ALL 1 or 2 point games, and several OT games! In the top 10, any of these teams can win week to week. Hawks did a nice job in the Crabs win, congrats!

Crabs Saturday bracket - Juice Cherries, ADVNC SF, Team Minnesota. Hawks bracket - NH Tomahawks, LI Express, Next Level.

Fat Crab's bracket fixing backfired.

Holdbacks starting to even out a little with puberty kicking in bigtime to even it out even more at this grade. Crabs days of dominating are over. Not their days of good teams..But to many other teams have holdbacks at younger ages along with to many athletic players hitting puberty at older ages and just as good as the holdbacks.

And we should note that Crabs D-League Team, VLC, got trounced by Looney's 13-3. And finished 2-3 on the weekend. Ouch.

Laxachusetts is exactly the same...they showed up to NLF with multiple 14 yr olds, including the goalie, on the 2023 team.

You are fooling yourself if you think 91, fca, looneys, hawks, laxachusetts, and any of the other 'elite' teams don't have holdbacks. Every single one of those teams does at every single grade level.

You're fooling yourself if you believe that! I know for a fact the team my son plays on is made up of legitimate 2023 kids aka 11 and 12 yr olds. Rare I know but I'm proud to say our club team is doing it the right way!! I hope more decide to follow that lead.

So wouldn't that be a rules complaint? Should parents of private school kids +1 if they did prefirst. How do you enforce that, oh rules, not kids/parents. Like it or not, you accomplish nothing by creating dicension among families. Focus your effort on the leagues. Under current rules, you are no more right or wrong than an older kid in the same grade.

All the teams have holdbacks and none of them have as many holdbacks as you think. When your son is in HS, he'll competing with kids much older than him. It's sad that people are so obsessed about it.

If your son plays 2023 for the Hawks, FCA, Looneys, or Laxachusetts then you are crazy if you think there are no hold backs on his team.

You are wrong about Hawks, there might be a few players that have been held back in the organization, but it is not the norm and it certainly not encouraged by the organization.

Probably another dad or coach not counting the summer birthdays as holdbacks.
