Anonymous Unregistered A	It really doesn't matter, all clubs will have a recruiting path. The bottom line is if your daughter is good, she will be recruited and it doesn't matter where you play. Where you play has to do with who is going to make your daughter as good as she can get. Who provides the training, coaching, organization that will help her get to the next level. By the way did any of you check out what Igloo put together for Nov 5th. 15 Top Division 1 head Coaches will be here on the Island including Shannon Smith. Look at this list of Head Coaches; might have to sign up for this. Coaches Committed So Far: Maryland – Cathy Reese Hopkins – Janine Tucker Stony Brook – Joe Spallina Syracuse – Gary Gait Oregon – Katrina Dowd Yale – Erica Lagrow Georgetown – Ricky Fried Florida – Amanda O’Leary Notre Dame – Christine Halfpenny Stanford – Amy Bokker Penn State – Missy Doherty Loyola – Jen Adams Dartmouth – Danielle Spencer Hofstra – Shannon Smith UPENN – Karin Brower Corbett

What age is your daughter? Most of those top schools are done recruiting 2019's and done with 2020's except some roster round outs. The next top group to get recruited will be 2021's and you are over two years away from communicating. If you have a 2020 close but undecided on one of the schools it may make sense.

They did the boys last year and the same thing happened 1/2 the coaches on IGL$$ website were not there. Plus new recruiting rules they will definitely not be there. Its about the all mighty dollar for IGL$$. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

But you scheduled this on the wrong weekend for you to make a $. All of YJ 2021s, and I'm sure TGs as well, will be down in MD for Primetime on 11/4 and Rivalry on 11/5. That's where these coaches should be as well. $400 to be seen by assistants, no thanks. I'd rather my daughter be playing against some great competition at a much cheaper price. Bad timing AA and you are charging too much.

I'd rather wait to to to an invite only event where the coaches know they will be seeing top talent. This is meaningless because anyone can attend and the talent will not be there. Coaches are smarter than that.

Spend about the same in gas, tolls and hotels and go to Maryland and be seen by the other D1 coaches. I love this travel lacrosse thing.

I doubt the younger age group parents are spending that kind of money on 2022, 2023 with the new recruiting rules in effect.

You are missing the point. The top end talent that the coaches THINK they are coming to see (YJ,TG) will be down in MD. When the assistant coaches from all those schools show up to this thing and realize they are watching some nice kids from 90+1, Igloo, Beach Bums, etc. they are going to be PISSED, other than for their checkbook. Once they realize the warmup line drills are all about ball chasing, they'll checkout.

Also with the new roles in effect - there are not "recruiting" 7, 8, 9th graders anyway. So it is a clinic/camp where the coaches get paid (yes) they have fun - well run event; and the kids can experience being coached by a DI coach.

By the way did any of you check out what Igloo put together for Nov 5th. 15 Top Division 1 head Coaches will be here on the Island including Shannon Smith. Look at this list of Head Coaches; might have to sign up for this. Coaches Committed So Far: Maryland – Cathy Reese Hopkins – Janine Tucker Stony Brook – Joe Spallina Syracuse – Gary Gait Oregon – Katrina Dowd Yale – Erica Lagrow Georgetown – Ricky Fried Florida – Amanda O’Leary Notre Dame – Christine Halfpenny Stanford – Amy Bokker Penn State – Missy Doherty Loyola – Jen Adams Dartmouth – Danielle Spencer Hofstra – Shannon Smith UPENN – Karin Brower Corbett Still think the 95% of the better players will all be down in MD. Just a list from one of the fall ball tournaments.
