What the 23 Igloo parents should try to keep the team together and move to another program. Just be the second A team for that program and practice up on the north shore like you always have. Seems easy to figure out.

CR and DG offered TC more money, that's why.

I'm sure Igloo parents will be thrilled traveling to Holbrook for practice.

So have two A teams within an organization...sounds good but not ! they will enter the same tournaments and end up playing each other which we all know how that outcome with the parents will become ...welcome more drama good luck with that !

Ha. TC the new most hated guy in youth lax. Take that to the bank.

This is true. On the boys side, I can tell you that it becomes a real problem. It's the reason Legacy started up. Took 91s second A teams. This will last for one year, Then they will merge into one A team. Problem with Igloo, is there is really only one girl who is a true A player, she comes as a package deal with her Dad as a coach. So the majority of the girls on this second "A" team will be cut. I also don't think the Thorn team needs any more Daddy coaches.

Done deal YJ Nassau team

That will work out great for this team. They keep what they have built intact, then massively upgrade all the players recruitability under the YJ banner. Absolute best thing that could have happened to this team, they actually got lucky that igloo folded.

So basically the pecking order remains the same on LI. Also heard the big basketball player, who was arguably the second best player on Igloo quit lacrosse. I aslo have to wonder if the two teams will poach from each other if one makes a championship and the other doesn't. That could really hurt girls in the middle of the roster, as well as certain starters who will not see any minutes in big games. Be careful what you wish for, because all CR cares about is winning games, not the girls.

TG
YJ Nassau
YJ Thorn

sounds like more of the same for MHS/Liberty connection.....

FALSE... why should we believe some random sho off the internet. the IGLOO site is still up and branded IGLOO

so what does that mean, the Igloo girls don't tryout? they just get the A team spot now Thorn is B and Wright is C?

True.. YG/Igloo

yes they will say its two A teams but really Igloo will be A

Wow, seems like YJ Thorn really gets shafted in this deal, as they now become the B team. That's a tough pill to swallow!

hope they get a bette enamel YJ Nassau is pretty lame

At the big fall recruiting tournaments the teams are always mixed

Sooo, CR had to by another team to save her reputation of a lack luster 2023 team??

TG has areas like all teams where they can improve; for instance the 2 low attackers from Want are solid and secure on that starting group but the other 2 spots can easily be taken by a kid from liberty, Igloo or any other program. High attack for TG is where AS knows he needs improvement

SAying that daddys girl is the only A player on igloo is ridiculous. Likke saying the middie from wb is the only A player on TG,,,, No they are just both the best players on their team.
TG's bottom 10 changes every year and usually is the make up of former B players, because they ride the pine and leave. Igloo plays all their girls, some are not A players but TC does play them all

don't think CR would do that...there would be a mass exit from YJ there was already talk of leaving ...

Sounds like the father here.........hoops player maybe top 10 in scoring on team and played attack,,,,,maybe top 10. I am sure a great hoop player but no factor in lacrosse. not a big lose for the team

Igloo has one great player period. Although she sometimes doesn’t show up in games, such as the beat down Igloo took from TH at there last meeting. TG has an Arsenal. There is no one player who makes the team. There are about 5-6 girls on that team who are lights out. The big Smithtown girl who shoots rockets. The wings play of the Islip and CSH girl, The Wantagh Attack unit. Very rare for all of them to be off in a game. If they win draws they pound goals, and have greatly improved there. YJ has similar strong girls at several positions, as well as a stand out goalie. Igloo/ YJ West is just not deep and it will be revealed this year. Then the one girl will move to Thorn, and rest of the team will be leafy to scratch.

so will there be tryouts or the team is just staying status quo?

No debth ? Lol !!! One would have to witness subs first to make that assessment. When that happens we can make that call.

Check the YJ website Colbert is listed as a coach

No need to panic this year things will stay status quo. Next year is a brand new ball game when the Igloo/Thorn girls all tryout and form one A team. There will surely be some very unhappy campers then you may want to leave if you aren't one of the top ten girls on Thorn.

Let me single out a few players so it seems I am nor just promoting my daughter, throw in some town names and positions, make sure I mention my daughter in this agenda so she gets recognition as one of the top players. PATHETIC.

money talks so yes she will do that! everyone will stick around for this year and see how it plays out...but once they realize that next year they will take the best players from both A teams and make an Elite team players will start to scatter ..run while you still have time

is igloo still holding their tryouts? or is the team just going to YJ as a whole team with no changes. looking for real information please. will we get our money back if we registered for tryouts?

its gone now...so something must be true

Tg has one good team and they are too happy to thro their teammates under the bus, as you can see nobody wants to be on the sideline with that group of insane parents, if you think it bad now wait another year or two when colleges are watching the games

The agreement is Igloo will come as a team this year depending on how many girls are returning. Depending on the number CR will back fill the roster at tryouts with the amount of girls needed for the team. Next year all the girls are in the tryout pool and will be placed by ability and f&f

So basically after this year, all the Igloo girls get screwed except for coach and his daughter! Like watching a train wreck, glad we’re out!

Actually, all the parents get along fine, and the entire team is talented and plays in all games. That’s the point. There is no one girl. They have plenty that are capable of stepping up at anytime, which is why the team has been so successful and returns basically the entire group every year. Please stop trying to create drama where there is none.

Every team, in every age group in every club has a roster of players with varying ability. It was a nice competitive battle the 2023 Igloo/TG/YJ teams enjoyed for a few years. Shame TC sold out his players to the highest bidder. If he was really just looking to keep them together there were many clubs like Empire that would have gladly taken them in.

He was looking for a high profile home for his 2021. Everything else was collateral damage.

CR gave TC the hand outs he was looking for...so we will see if it works out. If you live in Nassau and play YJ, why would you want to play on Thorn. On the strength that Igloo has beaten Thorn consistently, your daughter may get more looks from colleges on YJ Nassau. Will parents have a say of what "A" team their daughter is placed in this 3-4 team fiasco in this age group? What are this year's try outs really worth when the whole ball game changes in a year? I guess YJ peeps have money to throw away.

Correct TC did a great job of taking care of his daughter and himself. Don't expect more than one or two Igloo girls on Thorn's team when they merge. Thorns team is talented and there are too many friends and family to take of.

Looking forward to the merge of Igloo/YJ in a year and all the crying and belly aching when girls that have been on the YJ team for years get dropped to W's team and TC is coaching as T stands by and watches. Don't bury your head in the sand and pretend its not going to happen the writing is on the wall. And that will be happening 2 years before recruiting begins it will be great timing for all those loyal parents.
