As a parent, I pay a lot of money for my son to play lacrosse against the best competition available. Win or lose, he gets better because of this. There have been several LOCAL tournaments this fall that many strong clubs have played in, but Blast continues to avoid them at all costs. I don’t understand it. Are they afraid that if they lose the parents will revolt? Next weekend is another one. Probably the best teams in the east coast are all meeting up in Delaware at the NAL Fall Invitational. Express, Legacy, Bethesda, Hawks, Express North, Madlax and Sweetlax NY all making the trip. But no Blast. Again. My guess is that most of the teams I just mentioned would beat them this year. Serious answer, I think 91AA were signed up to play at the Express event but that was rained out. So maybe you can call up 91 and ask for Jim Mule. I'm fairly sure that he is an owner of 91 and he is one of the 2025 coaches shown on the website. Maybe he is OK with not putting a big emphasis on fall ball or maybe they are like the Patriots and do everything top secret. Also I'm very interested in finding out what team your son is playing on that you pay a lot of money for but didn't name. PS Mule has figured out how to separate parents from their money at 91, but I also think he was a Pro Coach and is in the Lax Hall of Fame or something and one of his sons plays at Duke and his 2019 team was good. You let us know what he says because I would like to see if he knows what he is doing. Someone’s panties are in a bunch, huh? I guess you’re a Blastard with blind faith in Mule. Being a HOF player does not make for a good coach. He is not a good youth coach. He runs a specific offense and makes sure he only coaches top teams so he can run it. He doesn’t relate to kids. And, he just one of the 7 coaches in the Blast revolving coaching door. You won’t see him in the spring. Maybe he’ll show up to a few tourneys in the summer. And to answer your question. You can figure out what team my son plays for very easily. His team has been ahead of you for years and that won’t change. If what you posted is true (which i doubt) then you know that 91 has beaten your boys team. That must hurt as you know the 91 teams are top notch every year. But my bet is that whoever he plays for your boy doesn’t play much and certainly doesn’t play another sport as all of these kids should. I hope you are getting your moneys worth for your son as he piles up the garbage time minutes against Force. Hopefully he gets in now, because there are multi sport kids on their way for Spring. Then your son can watch the two teams play just like you do. PS 91 posts their tournaments so you can make sure your sons team gets on the schedule.

Keep guessing. Oh.....and have fun in Delaware. My family and I will be enjoying a nice long vacation weekend together, because I know there is more to life than 6th grade lacrosse. And if you are so sure that Blast would lose to those teams, why do you care if they are there? You pay A LOT of money to play against the BEST competition. Stop worrying about Blast. They’re certainly not worrying about you.

I am asking a question on a public forum for information regarding youth Lacrosse Genius. It matters to me because I am engaged in my son's growth. It matters to me because I am interested in the team..... Ballers beware...The "B" teams are coming........... LA DUUUUUUSH...

But travel for the most part is over 3k, it’s a results driven thing. Being competitive and going 1-2 is okay and then there is something to build on. But going 0-3 and scoring like 5 goals is not promising. This is not directed at any team. Just making a statement in general. As a B team parent team selection is tough because of the unknown. But if my sons team looks like it’s just not competitive in fall, I would be really concerned that I will waste a lot money and years worth of development. And that I have to pick whole team next August.

One tournament, where they played up to play against B level teams, and lost the championship game. You can say they played up, but that means nothing when playing lower level. Not looking like 91 AA is looking that good this year. And no other tournaments for Fall? Are they trying to avoid LI Express?

Ummm, think not. Geese aint going 0-3 in tourneys so far. 91B team is just another dud team like past years. 91 makes money giving nothing back. Parents should have listened to warnings and not wasted their money on 2nd and 3rd level teams.

So lashes back with nonsense, when he has no idea how much time the posters kid plays on Express. Could be a starter for all he knows. But at least Express gets tourneys for the money they pay. 91 gets 1 fall tourney. And that tourney is a B level tourney so they play up and LOSE against Legacy's B team twice. Not looking like your getting anything for the big money you pay. Burn!!!!!

Like maybe Deleware this weekend where Express and Geese are? Instead its sorry, too bad, so sad. You only get one tournament which we charged you for in your tuition even though its our own tourney. And you played up against B teams and lost. Because they dont care in 91. Just as long as they are making money.
