So true it’s about the athletes nothing to do with the club. So just Keep wearing that gear thinking it’s going to do something for your kid.

Amazing! I thought I was the only one who relaized that!!

Go jesters. Didn’t know west Babylon players play for jesters. Thought they were all TGs. Congratulations to the Jesters as they prove they are the up and coming beasts TGs are still waiting by the phone drinking the Kool aid.

TG

That isn’t true… you could be a great athlete but if you’re on a lousy team you won’t have schools at your games

Easy there. Jesters have two recruits. Daddy ball daughter who took the first offer she got, after a bunch of other girls turned the spot down, and former TG girl, who Jesters had nothing to do with her recruiting. TG has two big commitments so far, and a few more coming this weekend, don't you worry! Sad that some people approach the college commitment process as a race.

That is true. If you think coaches only look at the top clubs for athletes your so wrong but I’m sure your one of those dad living through their daughter as she sits the bench at that top club. The best thing you could do for your daughter and her lax career is put her on a team that checks all the boxes. The main thing is that they see value in your daughter as a player and has a good coach not just Some Dad screaming like a lunatic. Also a team that plays your daughter. You can go to the best tournaments but if your not playing what good will that do for her? If your club coach is not playing your daughter how can he promote her? How can a coach help get a girl recruited when he himself will not even play her? It’s common sense! The top athletes that play will be the ones they promote. The rest fall by the side. This happens constantly and you will always have the parents on here saying you have to be at the top club but those same parents are also the ones who are so quite once no college coaches are reaching out.

Cuse commit from Jesters is an amazing player, so pace yourself on your detest parade. No one said it was a race, shame you feel the need to come on here and belittle a KID who has made a great accomplishment. Congrats to the TG kids with big commitments as well !! (so how easy that was??) LONG ISLAND 2023's getting a lot of love from some big time programs

Grow up! Coward hiding behind anonymity. Your jealousy is gross!

......And yet......more kids from Connecticut have committed to top programs than LI. Please open your eyes to the big wide world of athletes out there.

That’s why one of the above posts stated you have to play in the most competitive tournaments. If your team is not in those tournaments it’s harder to be seen. Your team can lose every game but you have to be there, coaches want to see players compete against the best competition. That is what made UA Underclass so good, it was the most competitive HS Lacrosse around.

So now you're mad that someone fired back after you threw the initial insult? Don't start a fire if you don't want to get burned!

UA underclass was not the “most” competitive, as most of the top LI girls were at AS. If you are talking 24 and 25s.

Do not know where the top girls were but I do know that both events are now watered down and AS is more political than UA ever was. YJ players traditionally made up the bulk of the UA Rosters even in years when no YJ connected people were involved in coaching or evaluating.

I dont know why this is still a conversation. Lots of solid 24's at UA, and the top YJ 25's for sure from what I heard. Next year everyone can complain about being able to do both.

What tournaments are the top tournaments for this fall?

The ones that have the top teams ;-)

Fall tournaments irrelevant for 24's. may see a college coach wander by a 24 field but they'll be focusing on 23's and their own fall ball.

The Presidents Cup
Mid Atlantic Showcase
Primetime
Live Love Lacrosse
Lax 4 the. cure

You clearly have no background on recruiting. There will certainly be schools at 24 games this fall

Top clubs go to these if you’re not in them there’s a reason

No there won’t be

You’re a clown. They most certainly will be. 23 calls are done. You didn’t get that call it ain’t coming. 24s up next

LOL if you only knew

Lol love the newbies who are clueless. 23 calls are done what a knucklehead

Hilarious. Coaches are still dealing w the 22’s and just started the 23’s, which many college coaches are calling one of the most talented pool of recruits they have seen in years. With the larger than ever college rosters thanks to the 5th year and transfer portal, the 24’s will be fortunate to get a lot of attention in the Summer of ‘22 if things continue to trend as they have been.

Either you’re kidding or really misinformed. Hopefully the former.

I have had two other daughters go through recruitment and my daughter had D3 coaches on the sideline last year as a 24. Will BC be on our sidelines this fall, no, but there will be coaches especially if your kid is handling recruiting properly and if you are in a good club going to events like presidents cup

Exactly. Feel bad for these clueless people.

Hmm. why would d3 coaches be looking at 24's this fall when they are generally 8 to 12 months behind d1 on committing kids. Good try though!

Are D3 coaches going after the same pool of kids though?

Never been through the process yet, are D3 coaches allowed to contact girls at anytime during the year , unlike D1 coaches? Do They have different rules?

The D3 coaches are doing the trickle down time line now when all the kids that thought they’d get D1 fall commits don’t, these coaches will looked at 24s and other 23s so they can pick up the 23 fall out and be prepared for the 24s. There will also be d2 and D1 at 24 tournaments like presidents cup. If you think otherwise, good luck to your kid

D3 has no restrictions, they can contact now if they wanted to

Same parents who don’t think coaches will be looking at 24s this year are the same coaches that think their cruddy club will help get them into a top 10 school

Is the jesters daddy 24 coach mentioned over the summer still coaching? Has the club shifted coaching staff for any of their 24 teams yet? I don’t see anything about who coaches which teams on the website.

2024 is a weak class. They will have no where near the attention of the 2023s. Heard it from several coaches

Let the fools be fools.

How did you hear it from several coaches? Please do tell?

I think he is still part of the coaching staff. Just not head coach? They brought in Tilts as the head coach, from what I hear.
