If you really think that your a bigger idiot than the PA parents
bashing TB on here. Its two or three that left TB or JC and cant
let it go..they should just move on and worry about their
own future with MC and the $5k price tag thats right around
the corner..but hey not bad for those that are scholarshiped
that dont even start..lmao

Outlaws making progress. Be ready for Blatant everyone. See you all there.

Are both teams in the "B" bracket where they belong? If so, we won't see you.

LOL - please post your contact info, as I have some deals for you!

A brackets. What team does your son play for?

Both are A teams

Bandits will be the top team. Haugen stands no chance.

Love it! Best laugh of the day.

thats funny

Haugen best team on Long Island, Bandits a close 2nd....

LOL you guys can not stand a chance with us if you tried. All you have is the hold back attackmen. He wont even be able to play in the wsyl

Express got a few studs from PT. Big, fast and skilled. The same 2 guys that took the [lacrosse] bandits to a braveheart a few months ago. You got a few guys based on their birth dates to fill out your WSYL roster. It'll be no contest. Express by 8 goals.

Heard they only added one middie

Westchester board making reference to 2 '23 Prime Time players going to LI E - could be the same guy posting on both boards to substantiate it, but maybe not . . .

So the "LI" Express had to get kids from Westchester and Putnam county to compete. Pathetic

It is unbelievable how incredibly sad your lives are. Tou talk about the WSYl like it is the end all be all. Not sure what ypu think it will do for you or ypur kids lives. 5 mins after it is ober nobody cares.

Does anyone have a humble bone in their body?

Haugen's team is carrying 6/7 more kids than last year. Such an embarrassment. Kids won't even see the field and still want to go along for the ride. Daddy coaches with the big guy keeping his fogo son on the field too long. This team will be lucky to last the season.

Sounds like an ex- PT parent trying to talk up some nonsense about her son joining Express. Stop the self promotion, you're embarrassing your family.

Not only that but we have an enormous roster. Partner that with a pushover coach could get ugly. Practice reps will be difficult

Low IQ, me-first player coming your way to LI Express ...

All teams are expanding their rosters this year because they need players the will fit the WSYL eligibility requirements. 4-5 kids from everyvteam don't make the cut but the club still needs to represent. The fact is that Express added some high quality players and Bandits got a few roster fillers that will never see the field and a big slow pole. We'll see how it plays out, but since we beat them last year, we should dominate them this year. Little vs Big is not a good matchup.

There is not one kid on my sons team that is a holdback. Every single kid is 12 and will be 13 next year, so not every team has 4-5 kids that don't make the cut. Only Haugen, 90+1, Igloo you know all your so called AA teams that need older kids to win t-shirts.

This thread is hilarious for the last 2 months it was bash Outlaws, TB, Empire, Fl$ etc... Prior to that it was Express, Igloo, 90+1 and some guy BM. Now we are back to bashing 90+1 and Express does anyone have anything legitimate to talk about on this thread or will it always be a [lacrosse] session by parents about 12yr old boys and there teams. What a shame!!!!!!

What is PT?

What exactly would you like everyone to discuss? All you seem to do is come onto this board and tell everyone how lame they are. What legitimate topic are you bringing to the table?

Let's discuss which clubs are NOT getting hammered, and explain why? They might have a better business model.

I'm not the original poster, but what your saying is its ok to bash 12 year old kids and teams that's real mature. However I do think you are lame if you are bashing kids (KEY WORD- KIDS) that makes you lame in my book. Sad thing is its not just 2023 its every age group but 2023 is one of the worst groups.

The only clubs that are not being hammered are those that are probably in the lowest tier talent-wise - it's fairly obvious why they don't get hammered, and I don't think any of it has to do with their business model.

Recon does a nice job of engagement with the kids, community service, cost, and transparency.

Recon does do a lot for the community. It was something that attracted us to the tryout. Problem was some of the coaches on the field acting like aholes. My kid is a B player anf was offered a spot on their B team. We deckined because of the way the one coach barked at his son through the entire tryout. Hard enough dealing with daddy coaches. When they treat their own kid that way I can only imagine how he treats the others. The fact that they are hokding supplemental tryouts proves I wasnt the only one that declined their invite!

S2S doesn't get a ton of bashing. It will be interesting to see if that continues now that they have expanded. Hoping they didnt just turn into a money grab with their 2nd team.

So which club are you proposing?

AJ's Loyalty to some of the boys and their families on the team will be the teams downfall. They picked up a big middie from P/T, but he is not a play maker, he doesn't pass the ball, and will not succeed against a decent defense. Channy is still trying to sell the first and second 2023 teams, that they are both going to the WSYL, hopefully no one on the second team is buying that crap. For those families that are paying the increased tuition to play on the first team with an inflated roster, you need to have your heads examined, especially if your son is not already receiving quality minutes on the field. For all tournaments other then the WSYL, they will play only the top players (including the WSYL ineligible players), and then you will get hit with an additional charge to go to the WSYL, and your kids will again not see the field, because Channy wants to repeat last years victory. $3,800 plus the WSYL fee, travel expenses plus, is not worth just being able to say your son plays for Express' first team. Without time on the field, your son will not develop into a better player down the road, when it really becomes important. P.T. Barnum said "There is a sucker born every minute", as long as people keep paying, you can't really blame the directors of all of these travel organizations for accepting the money. As always, buyer beware!

I guess these clubs didn't read the WSYL rules because there is a limit on the number of players you are allowed. So when all of those extra kids who paid $3,800 bucks to play can't, what happens then? Creating huge headaches for themselves and definitely not looking out for the players. It's kind of ironic that the teams who have been cheating with older players to win all these years now all of a sudden want to be legit! You can't make this sh** up!

You completely blow any credibility by speaking poorly about the new mid from PT. He's a great player and very nice kid. Too bad the NY families accused him of being a holdback when he played with Dukes Nationals against LIE.

I wasn't speaking ill of the young man from P/T, my point was that his addition to the team is not going to solve the bigger problems that exist with the team, nor will it improve the situation for those boys that spend most of their time on the sideline.

I am not proposing any club in particular. I was pointing out that while the concept of Recon is good, the whole thing gets soured by daddy coaches that think their kids are the end all be all and act like jerks. Many of these clubs that still don't have complete rosters are suffering because of the way some of these coaches behave. While the nig clubs have the same problem they fill rosters because they win games and have made a name for their organizations.
