Don’t kid yourself. The lesser kids on Carro aren’t going anywhere. Don’t be surprised if you see some more FAF next year.

don't be surprosed if pm takes over the team after next year

You must be talking about the 2019 Blue Carrow/ Mt. Sinai/Friends and Family team. Our 2019 Black team has a lot of kids, but they all belong on this team. I can’t say that about the 2019 Blue Carrow/ Mt. Sinai/Friends and Family team. There are about 5 kids that absolutely do not belong on that team. I hate to see the team split up, but maybe next year BS will add another team to reduce the roster (and make some more money).


Funny thing is some kids from the town you mention were moved off the team while TG black picked up a few who were unable to make it on the top YJ team in past years.Maybe they worked hard in the off-season and got better maybe its easier to make TG black. In my opinion which is a bit of a contradiction Tg wins at this age group but their team is easier to make, go figure.
None of the new kids on TG Black or TG Purple came from 2019 Blue Carro/ Mt. Sinai/ Friends and Family.


2017 black has some Suffolk/YJ players who are not happy. Purple looks a team of physical players who giggle after the job is done. Both teams have awesome talent, just need the best chemistry

Your right, she is good, not great. YJ 2018 blue has advantage at that position which may be the balancing point between those two teams. So I agree with most of the post on here that TG certainly has attractted some talent, but I also agree the YJs may have the edge coaching. Many of the young coaches on TGs are great players and many will become great coaches, but they are young and need the time to get there. Everyone on here should be happy that the other club (you don't belong to) exisists. Instead of hating, know that even though things may be rosey with your team/club right now, a lot can happen in a year or two and like many others, you may be looking to switch. Grass isn't always greener, but sometimes it most certainly is.

You are on an open internet forum, just because you post a pointed question you surely can't expect people to stay on your topic for the rest of the threads exisitence. You have no control of what will be discussed, if you can't handle that, you may want to tune out.

You lost to skywalkers at same tourney who YJ then went on to crush so your math skills are about as good as your lacrosse, which is to say not very good. You have also lost to YJ top teams any time you have played them directly.Try to win some championship tournament before you start saying how good you are.

Tired of hearing the blowhard 2016 parents .2015 easily has the most talent ,unfortunately for them so does YJ and sky walkers in this age group.The top players from TG2015 are way more accomplished than TG 2016 , the players and teams are not comparable .

Not so fast Elliot Ness. TG 2015 lost a last minute one goal game to Skywalkers 2015 who then went on to crush YJ 2015 at the U15's in Florida.

2017 has talent on both teams, I think as the season goes on we may see some surprise switches being made. Bill and Shannon are looking to build a dynasty and the right combination of talent and sportsmanship will make this the team that makes people talk.
Looking forwardvto walking the circuit and making new friends, good luck girls, have fun families!

Sounds like your new to TG, and welcome. Surprise switches? Maybe switch up the roster for next year, highly doubt they would mess with roster this year. If the second team has talent on it and good chemistry, it may be best to let them stay there and build on top of that. They should follow YJ lead and lose the color designation, have no A or B tag, this would lend itself to girls remaining on a team that could rise above the so called A team and be the better team without moving girls around on rosters year to year. It would also confuse parents of new girls trying out as to which team they actually made so the would get less people walking away from rejection of the black team. While some of the black teams may have the majority of the talent, there are many players on the purple teams that are way better than most on black, but that's the politics of it all. Moving from YJ to TG, the politics are just as bad .

Are you really this dense. First off the we lost by less to the same team argument is childish at best, second you are using 2015 teams to make statements about a completely different 2016 age group.If you are going to use sarcasm at least have a clue.

Not sold on 2017, saw them play M&D at CNC last summer....awful lot of work to do to even get into the "Top Teams" discussion. Don't get too many cracks at the top teams so gotta make them count.

Some poster made up a term to describe the politics of the clubs that gets certain girls on teams that they wouldn't otherwise make without some sort of "friend or family" connection to a director, coach or whatever. That poster must be proud of their little phrase as they are wearing the term out.

It means that someone feels certain players do not deserve to be on a certain team and only get put put there because they are either friends or family of the powers that be. Whether this is correct or just sour grapes is always an open issue.

In most cases (99%), I’d say this is correct, not sour grapes. However, if it bothers you, you’re better off letting it go, because there is nothing you can do about it. Just thank god that your daughter is not one of the kids being labeled as a FAF.

Borderline cases really don't bother me. Don't even mind obvious cases, but I do feel bad for kids in this position that are put in situations where they don't belong. The only time it bothers me is when it is a coaches kid, and they dont belong yet somehow they get more playing time cause mom or dad does the sub rotation.

I heard in order to save money the players are now going to share pinnies so you better find someone from an older team that is the same number.
