BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2032-4th Grade Fall 2023/Summer 2024

I think most people who have been around this for a few years would agree. Express/91 combined with NLF exposure draw the better players in.

You can YouTube the 91 shock blowout of 91 Maryland at the NLF in Lehigh last year and get a taste of what it looks like. There wasn't a free spot on the sideline for a college coach to sit.

Just saw the video, nice game but sideline looks normal for lax games.

No one is getting rich off lax - this is all fun in the same at any age level. It's the connections through college and who you know that sometimes help for the future. Doesn't matter which club if your kid can play people will keep an eye on him.

If your son is a skilled player need to be connected to Igloo, Shore, Legacy, 91, Express and Rebels. Will certain of these clubs at certain ages be weaker than the norm, yes, but by the time these kids hit 8th/9th grade, these are the only clubs with exposure, tourney access, and talent that will get their kids to the next level. You can debate all day which 2032 team is better than the other, age by age, but it’s almost always a debate among these 6. Legacy Taz 2024 dominated this years recruiting class, 91 and Express have done exceptionally well the past few, all 6 had strong 2023 classes, the same is shaping up for the 2025 class. These teams will continue to select from a handful of talent across the island and to the extent not enough LI talent will the clubs fill in with out of state kids, who will come in as guest players. This batch of kids may also play on multiple teams or national teams. Debating which 4th grade team is the best at this point is nonsense, if within the 6, all will be good as long as the playing time and the training is there.

91 Low Lifes are running up a BIG phone bill. Calling top players from other clubs. Then CANNOT Develop so they try to Poach. Really sad. How the Mighty have fallen

Name me a team that “develops”.

91 best on the street for development of players It’s not even close

All of travel lacrosse recruit top talent…. This is the start

Express as well. 3 reasons P, Kavanaugh, C Kavanaugh, and Entenmann…3 of many reasons. Apart from 91, no other club can close to that type of talent development

3 Long Island teams making the semis at NAL. Good showing from the LI group.

Igloo, rebels and 91 qualify.

Shore and Legacy miss.

Express not entered.

Yeti’s reign supreme

Guess they aren’t dead.

Yes out of all the Long Island Teams that went to NAL and Adrenaline only Igloo and 2026 Express CoachC took home titles.

Congrats to igloo. Maybe rebel parents will simmer down for a bit after losing to 91 twice.

91 with the Geust players, Parents were so happy.

Care to elaborate on what a Geust player is? Some of us are in the dark on that one.

Brought players down from titans for Sundays fans. Confirmed.

Good lacrosse all around, the top few on LI can beat each other on any given day.

Confirmed by who? That isn't true. Which kid/what positions?

91=cheaters

91 confirmed 5 guest players, all within age. Will be on the team next year. Igloo still the team to beat.

They are prob replacing the coach who left and his kid and friends …..
Valor falling apart not a good luck

Congrats to igloo, sideline looked much better without that whacko coach they fired. And glad to see the Rebels lose, the parents deserve it They are the worst. If 91 cheated who cares only gets worse from here on

What happened to the Shore 2 Shore Frogmen???? Looking like other teams will be picking up some players at tryouts.

Whats the name of Igloo coach they fired? Igloo seems like always have problems.

what happened to the S2S Frogmen??? Looks like they will have lots of unhappy families seeking new locations…

Shore never played in any decent tournies last year so all their winning was B/C tournies. Major wake up call.

91 played with 31 kids, NAL did horrible job checking Rosters. Hope 91 feels good with cheating

It is not right that kids played on two teams in the same tournament. Even if the kids brought down from the '31 team on Sunday were on age. Rules state "Players are only allowed to participate on one team throughout the course of the event." That is a big miss for NAL.

... and a horrible standard set by a top club.

The issue of people saying incorrect information, is it now leads to other people commenting incorrectly which is not good for the sport. Valor has things to improve (as does every team that is 10 years old). But adding kids from other teams/Titans is 100% false.

After losing to the Archers so many times, it was a nice step to beat them two times this weekend in very good competitive games.

Igloo winning the way they did makes it obvious there is a lot of work that still needs to be done.

Rebels parents need a box of tissues 91 - 2 Rebels - 0

Rebels such a bunch of babies. Telling lies about kids from 31 coming down to beat them without citing one kid or number who is on 31 team.

91 is disgrace, Titians out on Saturday so 91 had some play with 32's Sunday. Facts it's all on Video

Name the names and numbers then of who cheated and played down with 91. If true then yea awful of 91. The parents of the 32s need to speak up and call the coach out for it.

Titans did not play with Valor, stop the fool. Valor beat the Rebels, twice, and now we have parents making excuses.

Not true at all. You're upset that your kid lost. It was posted previously that 91 & Express are the dominant programs to be a part of. You said it's on video so go ahead a post a link or a screen shot. You can't do that because it didn't happen. Big reality check for you.

91=Losers. Do anything to win. Poach, Cheat, fly in players. They are DONE

Rebels parents need a nap

I thought cry baby rebel parents would make the excuse that their best player only played first half of first game vs make up lies about valor playing kids from 31 team. Either post the video/name the players or stop crying bc you lost fairly

We'll all be waiting a long time. There is no video of it because it didn't happen.

91 on the way up, boys coming over, will make them stronger

There’s a lot wrong with parents on both sides. You guys should be happy there are 2 top teams on LI and your kids are part of them. They play close games and get better and more separation from others. Definitely the top 2 landing spots right now in 2032.
