25%

Anything more than 20% and you should be ecstatic. If you’re daughter has the grades, they’ll be able to couple the athletic with academic money to get a large package

Completely depends. At the D1 level, for a field position player, anything over 35 % is exceptional. SOmetimes a top goalie will get more. There will be exception where a top player will get more, but that is truly an exception.

So for example. Women's lax gets 12 scholarships in total. That's 3 per year.

Most schools bring in 8-10 girls per class. of though, 6 or 7 are usually getting $$ while 2-3 are PWOs. So 7 girls are dividing up 3 scholarships with goalies and sometime draw specialists getting more.


Also you should not that most athletic grant in aid are given in $$, not percent. So they can keep the award the same while decreasing % over time as tuition rises.

That is a very broad question. Athletic Scholarships can be between Zero and 100% of total cost to attend the school (some will jump on this and say 100% athletic scholarships never happen in lacrosse, to that I would say never say never although 100% would be extremely rare). The NCAA maximum number of scholarships that a program can offer is 12 per year (12 split up among the entire team). Not every program is fully funded, meaning the program may not have the maximum of 12 athletic scholarships they may have fewer to spit up.

Coaches have their recruits "ranked / prioritized" and the top kids will be offered more than the lower ranked players i.e. the coaches #1 will receive more $$ than the #5 etc...

Top tier recruits (the type of player being offered $$ at Top 10 caliber programs will most likely be able to negotiate more $$ if they are willing to drop to lower tiered programs.

Theoretically a coach would have 3 scholarships to divide among an incoming freshmen class (although with the transfer portal and the extra year of eligibility things have changed).

Hypothetically:

#1 - 75%
#2 - 50%
#3 - 50%
#4 - 30%
#5 - 30%
#6 - 30%
#7 - 25%
#8 - 10%
#9 - 0

or any other combination imaginable... :-)

Most coaches will not decrease a players scholarship but they may increase the award is some instances.

Keep in mind that at some schools depending on your financial situation and how many kids you have in college need based aid can amount to more than an athletic scholarship, Also, academic/merit money can also be awarded at many schools.

I would say that 'a good percent" is in the eye of the beholder.... 30% athletic scholarship at a 70K per year University would not be enough for many but would be great for others...

Some of these rankings are funny
Laxon losing in their tournaments then bumping down to the weakest brackets to win and finishing 116 this fall. The weird thing about them is they picked up every teams cuts. At least the girls get to play on a team that isn’t called a D team.
Then you have top guns black playing in a c-d bracket in Dallas
Liberty is essentially MIA , not even sure if they are actually a real team
91 played teams that can’t even catch and beating them then losing to a team ranked 70th is pretty spot on with the type of play the club thinks they can achieve.
Don’t even get me started on jesters pink, 91 navy, or elevate which should all just take the L and fold now.

Stony brook is known for decreasing scholarships to kids who underperform and giving $$ to girls performing well

If true that is the exception and not the rule…
BTW, I have not heard that SBU is “known for decreasing scholarships”…. It might happen but I don’t thin that is what they are known for.

This post is hilarious. What in the world provoked you to post this ?

Weird I said programs when referring to validity of UNC camp with 10-20 programs attending. I also alluded to parents bringing their daughters to schools they were qualified for. You somehow inferred I meant 200 kids going to Stanford with 8th grade A’s was my support of that.
My message still is valid. I be you attend the 185 college coach 3rd party showcases before 90 coach Team tourneys because of exposure. Weird the before day has more than the actual tournament but ok.

To be clear, most scholarships are given in $, not percentage. So as tuition rises, most scholarship %s will decrease.

no one is getting offers from those camps. No is getting looked at (especially 8th graders).... No one is being put a radar ....that is laughable... it is fun you get to see some of what is really out there..... and thats about it good luck

It’s the BOTC Jester entertaining us again.
Thank you for making us laugh and acting the fool.

Pretty spot on!

Also beware, not all colleges stack academic and athletic, and Ivy and patriot league don’t give athletic.

They insult the jesters in that post seems like a YJ or Legacy parent

My kid is not on jesters pink pride sorry to disappoint

Just shedding some light on those b teams and “A” teams that are actually b teams

Lol
Nice try
Worry about your own circus

Every mentioned except for Jesters Black???

It doesn’t mention YJ, Legacy, Jesters Black, Elevate,Empire etc etc. I know exactly who you’re suggesting it is but she coaches the A and B 24 teams.

My money is on a YJ B or C team dad. Neither team mentioned in the original rant. I'm sure we will never know though.

Not exactly accurate with respect to Patriot League schools.

If you get a personal invite, ( the "we cant contact you directly but")... and teams are sniffing around your sports recruit bio at least 2 or more times, and they have seen you play, perhaps it should be considered that you go. Camps are a way to pay assistant coaches to stay at top programs, perhaps your child will be at a program and has a relationship with an assistant that is going to want to make more money, its a necessary part of the business. To retain services of assistant it cost money.

Nah , I think we know.
you are working too hard at trying to cover it up.
How long before you start promoting yourself again?

Enough, can we get back to college/recruiting information and advice. Hopefully, from some who have been through the process with their older kids! Thanks to all who have been and continue sharing that information. I appreciate it, and look to this forum for helpful and knowledgeable advice. So, thank you!!

Girls are 2024s now, time to move on from team bashing and worry about getting your kid in a position to find a good college situation. Prob. too late to be moving teams now anyways. No point in bashing each others teams. Hopefully all the LI girls find great schools to attend. Everyone’s journey is different!

agreed

Went to the Vanderbilt camp, was good about 80 girls from all over Clinic in morning and 5 v 5 Tourney to finish up

I have nothing to cover up? I was pointing out that multiple teams were mentioned. I am far from capable of being able to coach a group of 16 year old girls. I can barely handle my own

So that was one of the most pathetic posts ever typed by an anonymous YJ ring kissing parent . I’m sure everyone appreciates your “ I played lax in high school “ evaluations. I know your the guy on the sidelines telling everyone how good YJ is and that your kid is amazing!! Obviously everyone is aware that this is fall ball , most teams trying things out and installing new offenses and defense schemes . I personally wouldn’t put tons of stock in a fall schedule or what tournament Laxon played in. You seem to be very busy studying every teams schedules , rankings and every other meaningless statistic. It’s time for you to get a new hobby !! I feel terrible for your daughter , very sad .

Thank you
We are all looking forward to information on recruiting and camps.

Surprised the numbers were that low. How many other schools were there? Was the 80 girls mostly 24s?

Right !! Any help is always appreciated. Lots of winter camps/ prospect days
Duke prospect day 12/27-12/29
UF 12/28-12/29 prospect camp
Pitt 1/8 prospect day
Michigan 1/15 prospect day

This past weekend , so many camps going on. I know several girls who went to all different ones, sounded like low numbers at many of them. Girls were spread out all over.

Ok now you’ve done it. You’ve bashed every single club and team that is a threat to you including your own B(Pink) team. Was this a feeble attempt at a smoke screen or are you mad at them all for not showing up to practice and Dallas?
Bashing others will not make players want to leave and come play for you..

Pathetic?… YES it.is
But par for the course with you
Let’s get back to talking recruiting

Because so many overlap girls get spread thin

I live NC and can definitely tell you that the UNC camps are a HUGE draw. UNC has a massive social media following and they know how to market their camps and word gets around. On connectlax you can see a list of some recruits confirmed to be attending and some big names on there already.

Yes, we are here on LI and know lots of girls heading to UNC camp on the weekend. That camp will be at full capacity… It’s sold out! Not sure if that’s do good. May be too many girls?

You really have something to prove accusing the same person over and over. You have zero proof of who posts things on here. Once again attacking the same person for no reason other than a personal grudge. You need to get over it. You’re acting like a big baby carrying on about a young women who probably doesn’t even know she’s being harassed by a 50 year old man on this website. All you’re doing is trying to start drama to make yourself feel like the alpha when no one is even challenging you. Grow up.

Can you stop already… we’re all trying to get real information for our kids and don’t want to hear about your ego being threatened anymore. You’re very transparent in what you’re doing just stop already so we can get back to what’s important.

Too many girls means it’s harder for yours to be noticed

If you want to be recruited, you need to beat the commits in the drills and scrimmages. That's what the coaches are looking for. Good luck!

Considering the OP bashed every club except YJ and legacy pretty much shows you what you are dealing with ! Clearly he or she is infatuated with other clubs rankings, scores and what they are doing, pay attention to your own club and leave everyone alone.
