Re: Boys 2026-7th Grade Fall 2020/Summer 2021 TheBackOfTheCage #309519 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A I know a family who has multiple kids playing travel lacrosse for many years. One of their kids went to the WSYL and they said it was an awesome experience and worth every penny. A great vacation for the family and a youth lacrosse experience unlike any other they had seen. Just like anything else, if you don't want to do it, then don't do it. As for the comment that the WSYL doesn't really matter ... do any youth lacrosse tournaments "matter"?

No they don’t.......but they also don’t cost upwards of 10k to attend.

Let’s try to be fair but you can get over 5k fast even if you watch your Airfare for two, hotel for a minimum of 6 nights, car rental, new team gear for the event. Also food... add the wife and a kid or two more and it’s close enough to $10k

Express has a large group of kids in this age group.

I am not from New York, but I can say every year I take time to read the same Welles Crowther story and it makes me emotional. Through all the BS of lax, if this sport can give our kids the ability to react like that and be a true hero, I will take that over all the goals, assists and defense in the world.

Re: Boys 2026-7th Grade Fall 2020/Summer 2021 Anonymous #309596 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Thats why i think if they could run effectively quality Age based tournaments with Credibility. People would have a much better experience. You would see that teams would not become dominant just based on having an older couple of kids. You might actually appreciate the coaching that kids are getting. Originally Posted by Anonymous Originally Posted by Anonymous age best tournaments on long island ,, i agree. tough to administer.

Slightly better than the next level of teams. Express has 2-3 really good players that separate them. The rest are fine but at the same level as kids on many of these other "B" teams (Legacy, Outlaws, S2S, LILC).

But I watched Express crush 91 in Jersey over the summer. The game wasn’t even close. I’ve noticed a lot of these top teams seem to avoid each other at all costs.

The top 4 played each other multiple times in the past year. When and where was that LIE/91 game in NJ? They played twice this summer both times in CT.

They played at LaxFest in Tinton Falls. I believe it was mid august. You can easily look it up on tourney machine. Express dominated that game. If they played each other all summer what were some of the results?

They also had a play day at Darien HS earlier in the summer, Express won. Lax Fest started as a blowout then 91 made it closer. Darien HS game was closer game. Don't say I watched in NJ when you didn't. That's the problem with this site, so much fake news. Any other questions?

Re: Boys 2026-7th Grade Fall 2020/Summer 2021 TheBackOfTheCage #309719 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Hahaha, they played each other twice .....with express dominating .

You compete with the team on the field that's why the games are played. It's such a weak argument when anyone says some version of "Yeah, but...." Ok but you didn't have a strong face-off. How did your team ride then? Great way to neutralize a good FO guy? Ride better, and battle for ground balls. It doensn't matter if you win 20 faceoffs if the same team has 25 turnovers.
