BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums MID-ATLANTIC LACROSSE MARYLAND FORUM Boys 2023-8th Grade Fall 2018/Summer 2019

I have an older kids and a 2023 and after trying out and getting offers for a few teams I am familiar with what some of these teams charge. It is a logical assumption that the national programs with marketing directors and full time office staffs and elaborate networks need to charge more than the local team coached by dads. That is not saying there is not a benefit to a large club in terms of opportunity but it will just be interesting to watch. At this age group the impact is very different from even last season.

The "rec" type clubs charge anywhere from $350 to $450 a season maybe less in fall combined under $1000 for the year. The non national clubs, Crabs, Hawks ect... about $2500 and some of the National clubs closer to $4k with box and/or winter training some are closer to $5K not including travel ect....For many parents, especially those already paying $20K per year for school this is not even a consideration but for some it makes a difference.

Crabs is $2150 this year. But you get a lot of gear. Helmets, gloves, lot of Nike clothes, discounted Nike cleats. FCA charges $2500 and you get no helmet, no gloves, etc. Shooter shirt, uniform and sweats. Prices vary but all clubs offer different things.

I’ll take my goalies over 1 and 0 any day and twice on Sunday! 1 and 0 are the bail out kings. HAHAHA! With that defense you guys have in front of them there’s no need to bail out. Don’t be scared. Hahaha!!!

I think you've been over served. Go home, you're drunk. Oh, wait - that's how you Hawks Dad's deal with those pigs at home. I get it now.

No excuses. You guys had a great game. We will get you next time that’s guarantee!!! Leave the goalie alone he was left out on an island by himself.

What was the score of the hawks game

I witnessed 5-6 hawks running to the parking lot before the crabs game. They must of been scared and the big one was driving himself RIDICULOUS!!!

Why is it when the truth comes out everyone gets butt hurt. Its all over YouTube, you can see it for yourself. Bail King!!!

You're an stunad. It is football season.

Youth football plays games on Saturday.

incorrect- check out the AA county and Kent County websites if you must. Sometimes Saturdays, Sometimes Sundays. Yesterday (sunday) county rec teams played. Clearly, you son does not play county football. A little googling would have saved you a post.

Football checks birth certificates... how can all of these holdback kids play? Interesting.

How did team 91 do up in PA yesterday? Played Freedom, Rising Sons, and Patriot

Crabs looked good yesterday.

That was my son driving he only has his permit. I over indulged on the mimosas at the tailgate ... if you have seen my wife you would understand!!!

Didn't see the Rising Sons game but I am going to assume 91 won - Rising Sons is still developing as a team.
91 tied Patriot after being down 4 - 1 at the half.
Freedom beat Patriot 7-6. Freedom looked sloppy,

10-3 crabs

So much for that zone D and great goalie now that kids can shoot from the outside. Better learn how to play man D now.

They played man D in first half. It was ugly so they went zone. That was ugly so they went back to man. Wonder what they are going to do now that they are out of options.
