Anyone's daughter doing the IL ID Experience? Looks like a complete money grab. There's kids posting on Instagram that they made it and they can barely catch.

My daughter was invited and not attending. I don't think the level will be high and no coaches.

All the top girls in the class will be there, and it’s used for individual rankings. You may want to reconsider, unless you don’t care about that

Checking the past years, it seems to have attracted a lot of the top players and commits? Was wondering why? I don’t think it’s a recruiting event, if people looking for that?

NTM most positions already filled and wait list only. Might have missed the boat if you didn’t already register.

The Juniors Open was not done very well and was held at the worst possible time in the recruiting timeline. Hopefully next year it will be run better.

Which is why I was surprised there were a few girls selected from my daughters team that were pedestrian. They made neither Selects or UA at tryouts. And not because of nepotism.

It will be better this year. Changed the dates also to 6/26-28. Will be just before HS National Championships in CT.

Look at the current IL ranking. No Unc coaches daughter. No Dewlax goalie. Is LI weiner girl on there. Coaches don’t care about the Syracuse alum ranking that by paying for their Id experience.

Coaches don't care at all about those IL rankings. There will be some top girls there and some who are very weak players. Most top lacrosse players are also multi sport athletes and in another season right now.

Looking at the roster for the IL, it does seem that top girls from YJ, Grizzle’s, Hero’s, Prime Time, Some and M&D and a few Skywalkers will be there.

When the girls fill out their profiles, they can see the roster for the 24’s and 25’s.

USA Lacrosse had the results of their "Should athletes be allowed to reclass" poll. Not surprisingly the results were an overwhelming no. I think they will go the way of USA Hockey where kids are placed through birth year not grad year. Of course this will get tricky at High School because of the way lacrosse is recruited, but I'm sure they will figure that out.

this grade locally probably has the smallest ratio of top players who are holdbacks

I would imagine that would have to do with the fact that there will be no five year Covid players at the 2025 level. But it still is a problem and shouldn’t be allowed.

They Shouid spend less on the silly clown uniforms and useless [Censored] and more on experienced coaches. They are in there at the best tournaments. No issue there

Soccer seems to have figured out recruiting pretty well with all of its leagues age-based.

Locally, maybe. MD, however, far from the case.

Anyone having their daughter go to the Philly Phinest Showcase in Charleston. Looks like a lot of top colleges there. Wondering if it's worth the price.

Is it a one or two day event? Do they have payment plans? Ouch! That’s expensive.

It’s a ridiculous money grab. As long as people are brainwashed into thinking they have to do all these events, the more will keep popping up. The social media showing girls that committed is marketing. They also played in many other events that got them recruited. If your daughter plays for a top 20-30 team and does the summer circut of tournaments, that is sufficient

Did Juniors. Did UA 150. Did American Select. All last year. All three huge money grabs. Will my daughter commit somewhere, absolutely. Is she getting there because of those events, absolutely not.

The schools she wants to go to we will be going to their camps this year and that is it.

Yep. I wasted sooo much money between travel expenses and those three showcases. If you’re not playing on the 50th ranked team playing the 108th ranked team at these tournaments, you don’t need to go to them. But my daughter loves them for the competition. She feels it makes her better.
