To afraid, why do you sign your name to your post
Setauket and buy a clue. Nobody on your team is clearly better than most of that team

Then how do you explain the MD united east score? That is a like opponent in the same weekend.

The key words in anything is someone WAS an excellent versus someone IS an excellent player. The IS excellent works hard everyday to stay there. The WAS became committed and stopped working hard. So important to work hard all the time. I don't care what you do-School, band etc. Always try to excel(believe me there will be plenty of time for relaxation with having this drive as well)

We see this all the time...still lots of time to change that course which is great for young kids.

What the heck are you talking about.

Either line they put out will beat Jones team by a lot.

Heard one of the 2020 YJ coaches isn't coming back. Is it A, B or C?

If you heard tell us who

Can someone with the YJ explain to me why the shines team looks different at each tourney and different days of same tourney. Do girls swap from team to team or do just some girls show up different days?

You would have to give us an example of what team and what tournament you noticed this at.

Honest questions here.

Can someone explain to me how 2020 YJ Cur looked like world-beaters this past Saturday in MD and then on Sunday morning lost to a very mediocre MDU team.

A few hours later that same "meh" MDU team got smoked by 2020 YJ Jones.

Do the YJ rosters change overnight?

They are probably talking about Jones. Some of the MD clubs were talking about it at G8 and Mid Atlantic.

Sorry auto correct. The 2020 Jones team.

Exactly! Jones barely beat a mediocre checkers team Sat by 1 then only lost to Heroes on Sun in playoffs by 1! At G8 most of their games weren't close against the same teams

Same kids on jones team all season including this weekend

How about this, they are kids, look at the ncaa girl scores

YJ Jones team has been the same since day 1 of the summer season. If you don't believe it, buy the tournament videos and compare for yourself.

College coaches have been noticing the improvement in the Jones team, and now you say even some of the MD teams are talking. The Jones girls are thankful for the opportunity to challenge themselves against the strongest club teams around. They always learn from the experiences.

is she the one leaving?

Is it true that there are fewer coaches at Elite 120 than there were at UA150? If so, what a complete waste of time and money.

Yes, Infuriating!

Elite 120? Did Sally not get an invite? Oh well... best of luck...

Good for you, you got a $500 invite with no coaches...sucker

Why do the yellow jackets not use a color designation for teams and just use a coaches name?

Since you guys are talking about jones , are there any other clubs with good "B" or second teams. I'm sure some good club B teams beat the lower tier A teams

That can't be that fewer coaches were at 120. UA 150 had no more than 20 total for 2 days

Or borrow it from mom in Jones team. She films everything

That event used to have almost every college represented but never had the best competition . Worked out well because if your kid was decent they would look like a super star in front of a lot of coaches . Now it seems to be just another non competitive money maker .

So they could have two blue teams and no one would feel slighted. It also allows for all sorts of chest-thumping amongst the teams claiming to be the top team.

that is just not true. Go on the elite120lax.com website and look at the blog on highlighted performers goinf back to 2014 and you will see many of the top recruits and a lot of familiar names.

The elite 120 site only list the 2016 coaches in attendance.

All of these events, Brine, UA 150, and Nike 120 have become watered down over the past couple years, particularly this year. Once upon a time they were prestigious, not now.

Too many money grabs. Coaches can't get everywhere. Just like the Nationals, a very weak field of teams yet its labeled the National Championship. Every week is promoted as the biggest showcase tournament of the year

We are not saying they look so much better, we are saying day to day they look like different girls. But I guess girls are not switching around because I'm sure the parents would be upset if their kid got bumped for another girl.

Agreed not all the to teams go to the nationals but I think the tournament is a great idea and you do get a lot of teams from across the country.If more of the top teams attended it could easily be a great tournament not run by any particular club so no real favoritism. The Maryland teams can say what they want but the age restrictions are a major reason they do not attend. They used to but rarely won so now they make excuses. Say what they want but the MD teams clearly enjoy some home town reffing against the LI clubs most of the summer to the oint that its comical at times.

You could argue that Nationals is the 4th or 5th toughest tournament field of the season. That makes it an utter joke even if some West Coast teams show up.

The 2020s spotted the Decliner at Maximum Exposure. She's always reappearing somewhere. Geez go sit down!

Day to day. What are you talking about?
You see them about 8 days a summer. Same team all year

Give it a rest. Most of the YJ's families are people you don't want to be friendly with. Why single this one out? The most egotistical me first club in all of lacrosse. If your kid was placed where you didn't like would you stay because you didn't want to upset the queen bee? What a tool you are

Brine was never prestigious ... it's a joke . UA150 never got traction . Elite 120 always had the best talent and coaches The no recruiting in JAN hurt it as that's when it was held. My first kid attended and got a bunch of good conversations started with coaches .

.

Yup! Just saw the kid in action. Definitely someone to watch!

Brine/ Warrior is a joke. Girls being named all American all stars there when they can barely pass or catch.

Its all about the money. Us lax people throw money at everything! Just ask CR
