I am quite happy this morning, had a little girl that had a great time and was very happy but very tired. Got to play at some beautiful fields (terrible parking). She went 2-2, did some shopping, ate some ice cream and slept on the way home.
thanks a happy tg father.

3 out of 7...with some surprising results. Team Elevate winning 2017 and YJ Jones winning 2020. Another surprise, no lightning and thunder!

What happened TG you won Nothing now stop bragging how great your teams are!!

I will say this ,on my daughters YJ team several TG players came over to cheer on one of their yellow jacket friends. Nice to see and the girls could not have been more nice to one another.

Uniforms are horrible, an opponenent said to my daughter that she felt bad for her because she had to play in a pinnie. Saw one girl who was big that it didnt even fit. I dont know why Bill wont buck up and get something nice with the players last name on it, many have expressed this to him.

Get ready- now will come the "if you don't like the uniforms just leave"comment. They can't take constructive criticism.

How can you make predictions like this? My daughter plays for 2020 black and I have no idea how good they might be. Are you scouting 2020 teams from Other states.
Lets just go and compete and let the girls leave it all on the field, win or lose.
Good luck to everyone this week, all teams, and all ages.

First off they are predictions so stop being so politically correct, and just because you have no idea how good the team can be doesn't mean I don't.You are going to look like a moron when they win the tournament, the only thing that will hurt this team is there are some difficult parents and the politics will be an issue in a hurry.Another prediction they win this weekends tournament.If you want to know the reasons for said predictions I can give you many.

Funny I don't feel like a moron. I watched M&D 2020 Black and TG has a long way to go before they can compete at this level.

Define a long way to go? M&D barely lost to YJ Curcio and TG did fine. These kids are 10 or 11 years old, some will get better and some will not. Next year more girls will try out and our team will get better still. I think the TG program will continue to strengthen in this age group, you just need to have patience. Even the YJ teams will go through changes. I'm not sure if they are trying to make 2 strong "blue" teams there, but knowing a bunch of the girls personally, they have a number of A team players playing on YJ Jones who could easily play on the other team. Their victory this past weekend only further proves my point.

Define fine. The team played terribly, actually did not play as a team but instead have a couple of complete ball hogs who do not pass the ball.This team is also starting to get the thuggish reputation and I cannot say they don't deserve it.The game against MD was not even close and your points about YJ just show that the team does have a long way to go. I thought the talent level was higher on the team but if YJ are 2 teams deep at this age with highly competitive players what happens when the best players are combined? Yes I get they are young and many things will change but the style of play concerns me, by that I mean a lack of team play andva lack of correction on overly aggressive behavior on the field.Before you throw out the there are plenty of other teams out there so just leave stuff or go talk to the coach I would have but could not as we had no coach there.

2020 Black hands down for this tournament. Kicking a@# and taking names.

TG should win every age but 2017, not much competition at this one.

How'd our 2020's do in the tourney?

Finally got to see Bill coach first hand yesterday. Now I know what everyone is talking about. Lots of yelling, very little coaching. This is what people are paying for? Crazy.

Congratulations 2017 TG Black for winning championships. Beat Team Elevate 3-2 in a nail bitter. Never say never!!!!

Higher ranked teams, higher ranked in what, this tournament was a joke especially in the recruiting ages.Next year stay away from the same weekend as under armor , spoke w friend down there who said there must have been 75 coaches lined up , although he did say uncommitted games were a nightmare , at 2014 age slim pickings, and at 2016 age ball hog galore especially w one or ten Long Island kids.2015 was somewhere in between the two.
