BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Should Travel Clubs Issue Partial Refunds if Lax is Cancelled?

Contract law, people...don't sign a contract that says no refunds...period. If you signed such a contract you are out of luck. This is how this country works. If your club director has worked hard to provide practices and alternate games/scrimmages/interactions, why are you complaining? Money grab? Greedy? Is the fact that children are involved the reason why making money is a sinister practice? Most clubs are fairly up-front that they are running a business. I would rather invest a few grand in my child than take a vacation that is here and gone in a week. This is not your daddy's youth sports world anymore. If you aren't getting a superior experience than that of PAL, why do you do it? Are your practices worth every penny? If not, who is to blame? You gave the
m the money...and signed the contract. So many people on here think that this business, because it is youth sports, should adhere to your altruistic stance and put themselves in potential financial stress...when they aren't contractually obligated to do so? Club sports have improved the game of lacrosse 10 fold. Watch a PLL game and tell me that the players 20 years ago could hang...a few could, but the skill is not even close. And this is largely due to the fact that we pay good money so great teachers of the game don't go into finance or some other line of work...so they can teach our kids. Stop being so darn silly about it. It's a contract...no one made you sign it.

None of it should be allowed at this point if they really want to contain this thing. The kids dont seem to be the big problem. The problem is the parents Packed together like a herd of animals, no masks, no distancing, no nothing., And they all carpooled to get there and are touching the same cooler for their beverages. Nasty! To each their own I guess. I for one, will be nowhere near that horseshi^%$#

[quote=Anonymous]We were just informed that two young men on our sons 91 2023 Team tested positive for COVID and all practices are Cancelled as we as tournaments..,

Whos going to settle with a team and pay the first payment in September with no Certainty of a fall season ??

Many parents. Listen to some of them, the excuses, the spin, yada, yada, yada. Cooper is having fun practicing and playing in 95* degree weather. But when he's home, his parents will not tell Cooper go cut the grass in 95* weather, it's too hot.

My god...everybody is going to die ... i hope the 1% of what...coronavirus deaths? Stop with that bs. Never knew long island was filled with such softies. Must be north shore.

Just my opinion, but the modified lacrosse with no faceoffs is not good lacrosse. Not worth it at all. Gave it an optimistic try, but not again.
