It’s ok. It really depends on what you are expecting out of it. If you want some decent lacrosse then it serves it purpose. If you are expecting to get “seen” by college coaches(in 8th grade ) then it’s a waste of time. College assistants make terrible money. They come to these events because they get paid to come. They are not looking at 8th grade girls for recruiting purposes. Just my opinion


Thanks

There are disgruntled people on every team. Call the directors they may do private evals.

Definitely try and get your daughter moved if you are not happy! Reach out to team directors. Ask about opening and a private tryout. Maybe practice with a team for a tryout. Going to get much harder to leave / get on a team going foreword.

If you are good enough, there is space on every lax team on the island.

It gets harder and harder to get on top teams as they to HS age. Teams will pretty much be set unless a girl is a super stud. The teams pretty much know the girls out there by then.

Not many will and if they do they won't really see the field. Mostly to get them ready for the future

No reason to be pushing an 8th grader to play Varsity other than bragging rights! Unless it’s an 8th grader who should really be a 9th or 10th grader? Held back?

How is UA150 similar to NYSR? NYSR you’re playing against other counties in NYS. UA150 is more of a camp for the top 150 players. Maybe you’re thinking UAAA

There are many 8th graders being brought up to play varsity this year all over...not necessarily hold backs

Then probably in smaller school districts or not hotbeds, that don’t have enough older varsity level players?

NYSR games are the new version of the Empire Games. Back when i was in High School the Empire Games were the pinnacle of NY sports... the ability to claim you were the best in the state... happy to see them back. But its a NY state only event... can be high profile if you get good players from the regions... but i wouldnt compare it to UA 150

explain how you feel they were rigged??
let me guess
top 15 best kids at tryout on Black
last 7 spots are kids who has a daddy or mommy coach at YJ or another connected program?? and some family and friends.
That’s what it always IS. tough to change.

If you play for legacy or YJ you will make the team for Suffolk. Talent doesn’t matter.

If the 8th grader is playing then it’s great ! If your there to sit the bench it’s not worth it at all.

i doubt any 8th graders will see the field on any hs team. unless its a smaller school with not a lot of talent. the bigger school teams won't have 8th graders playing
