Tons of kids from other teams but I don't know who made it and accepted. I'm guessing they will be in the mix as well. It's definitely a high caliber team of great players. Low profile, low drama. They'll be in all the AA tournaments. And if they play in those tournaments they probably won't win many games, the team is filled with bench players that weren't happy with playing time or told that they weren't as good as they thought, well good luck to them. Well if you were there you would have seen the talent. Too bad your son got cut and now you've got negative spew. Good luck with him Sounds like a coach with an axe to grind. Maybe the coach isn't as good as he believes he is. Additionally, there are a few teams (established) that shouldn't be in AA tournaments. Oh well... your post makes no sense to this club team.

Doesn’t mean they are actually leaving their current team. So unless you have access to a final roster and saw who gave deposits you have no clue!

Who were they looking at unless they had agreements already in place

You have proof this isn’t true? A few of the kids I know that tried out have yet to be contacted. Tryouts were Wed. So they must be waiting for people to accept and commit which is causing a delay in making contacts. If they can barely fill one team you can’t expect them to field 2.

The team being discussed lost at least 5 players and the coach who put the team together. Think it qualifies as an exodus.

Are you saying the 5 kids that left are all on whatever team he went to? That would mean that team lost 5 or cut 5 to make room or they just over inflated their roster. Don’t think I would want to be on that team.

They THINK they control the players and their arrogance is palpable. —- this is the year they are getting dumped. Like someone posted earlier— Denver is over!

MR took 2023 over there is no issue with DK and S2S. The team for that matter I have no idea I only heard they lost one starter. I heard Igloo lost 6 bak ups to the Turtles and two started to Express.

Those players didn’t come to the team for any other reason. Sorry to hurt your ego. Now that he’s gone — so are they. That shouldn’t be a surprise.

Turtles ownership were able to foresee the path youth lacrosse is heading towards. If you take into account what the turtles accomplished with the 2017 group and now the 2020 team, naturally, it was worth having kids tryout.

Only $1350- so it is good option. Tryouts are tomorrow and Tuesday in evening, and also the following week. Info should be on the Epic Jokers website.

Yes foresee the ability to make some money just like the rest of the clubs.if they only had 1 team I could agree but the fact that they are expanding to more grades just shows the money that's out their for them to take advantage of.

In addition they haven’t had a practice yet so I’m pretty sure the parents don’t know if they are happy. I think most of the postings referencing rebels are from rebels directors. Another question, does outlaws dna guarantee spam from rebels.
