First, NOT all teams have holdbacks. My son is on a top/top team and there are NONE. My problem isn’t with the occasional holdback, as they will always exist. It’s with the teams that seek to exploit that loophole in the rules for their own personal benefit, to the greatest extent possible. That can be termed nothing less than cheating scumbags in my book. Obviously a lot of people agree with that position, as evidenced on BOTC and the rules of the WSYL which is the only tournament that recognizes the injustice done and thereby closed that loophole. You want to cheat, no WSYL for you!! Right Maryland/VA teams?!!! The biggest cheaters of them all!

Unless he is an 05 or plays on another top team, highly unlikely.

exactly !! Well put: unfortunately there are many parents that do not know what a true holdback is, and will find any excuse they can for why there child is not on those top teams.

well... we will soon see. There may be one set of parents that may look to doctor their sons birth certificate next year on a TOP/TOP team. Many adjustments were made to social media accounts to hide truths. If that happens be sure that the team’s parents will be more than happy to make officials aware. Regardless of the ramifications. Enough is enough.

Only a completely jerk would call the winner of this youth tournament "World Champions". Also,


1. Did Spallina at least play all the kids this year? Last time, with a 10+ goal lead going in the 4th, he didn't let half the kids on the field. What a swell guy. Really deserving of that award.

2. Why did these parents spend $2K+ to play a game they could have arranged at home at any time?

3. Man, lots of those Express moms are homely.

Yes, a year from now it will be very interesting to see which teams have been secretly relying on their stockpile of holdbacks to win youth lacrosse games while one has been winning with 100% on age players, all along. After all of these years, their grandiose, greedy plan for winning at all costs will backfire on them, when it comes time for youth lacrosse's biggest stage. Very significant pieces will be missing from almost every team and many, many teams won''t be able to field a team at all (MD/VA/MA), except for one.

Early Predictions for next years WSYL. Igloo will play Express in a semifinal. Express wins. Taz will play WP semifinal and WP will win by 3 goals. Express will beat WP in the finals and finally be the top team of 2024 on LI.

13U World Champion. The best youth lacrosse is on Long Island. Always been that way, prob always will! Certainly looks that way, as Long Island continues to dominate WORLD PLAY.

By the way Madlax Dad, why did Madlax go to a tournament in Denver this summer, with ABSOLUTELY no competition there??? FACT! Some of us LI'ers have gotten pretty chummy with some Mad Lax Dads and they expressed how disgruntled they were about going. Thought going to Denver was too expensive for you DC types. Well, I guess if you can afford to go to an awful tournament there this year, ya'll will have no problem getting there next July for the WSYL. Although, you may find it hard to play a lacrosse game with 6 on age players!! Don't you know, cheaters never prosper! Guess you aren't teaching your kids that one. LOL!

3. I know, lots of those moms don't keep themselves together...Rough!

Does anyone know who will be coaching the 2024 Outlaws with Greaney moving to the Rebels? Will they have 2 teams this upcoming season?

Coach Rotolo will be 1 of the Outlaw '24 Coaches (2 Teams) and Coach Greaney has not confirmed leaving or taking the RL job so we will inform this thread on his decision once we received confirmation and if you are on our mailing list, you will see it there sometime next week.

Who is the best team of the summer?

Here are the winners of the top Tournaments:

NLF Super Series - Hawks
North American Lax Summer Invitational - Madlax
Crabs Young Guns - Laxachusettes
Millon Championship - T91 MD
Naptown - Duke's
NLF Club - ???

Anyone know anything about 24 East? Are they the old Team Long Island? How are the coaches, are they parents and is there a lot of daddy ball? Have those boys been together a long time so there is little chance of breaking into the line up?

Looking forward to ending the debate on certain holdbacks with the wsyl. Interesting to see the giant madlax middie and the chosen one both played in the wsyl this year. I guess we’ll know whether they are just that good or just older like everyone says.
