Re: Girls High School B_O_T_C #408066 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Can anyone explain WHY the IAAM refuses to have playoffs for JV girl sports? What is IAAM reasoning? Is it up to the AD’s of the schools or is this an IAAM issue? A little unfair to have boys JV have playoff games but girls are not given the same opportunity. Anyone have an answer? Like Reply Quote

My best guess is that JV is unofficial, there's not standings, there's no records like goals scored etc. Its simply a scrimmage to prepare for varsity. Like Reply Quote

Re: Girls High School Anonymous #408163 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Originally Posted by Anonymous I have 3rd grader that plays lax. What are the best club teams? Top local club teams right now are Heros, M&D, and Skywalkers. That could change by the time your daughter enters high school. There are so many local club and most will offer the development that your 3rd grader needs right now. I would definitely check out the forum for that age though so you can get a better gauge of which teams are good at that age. Like Reply Quote

Mercy has some talent. Why not empower this girls? Well Mercy just lost to Garrison. So they're really making an early statement. The correct answer should have been for the bottom teams in A to go down to B where they could be competitive. Not to move Mercy up to A and add another non-competitive team to the division. How is it empowering the Mercy girls to go from winning B championships to winning 2 or 3 games this year? Like Reply Quote
