Waste of money (to play but also for travel/meals/hotel because they were in Albany.) Didn’t do them this year but at least they are local. Like Reply Quote

It was called New York State Regional Championship for a couple years before they changed the name to Excelsior Look at it as an opportunity for your daughter to play lacrosse and attempt to secure some bragging rights, and you will be fine Look at it as a recruiting event and you might be disappointed Like Reply Quote

They are offering a “VIP Experience” with college coaches (actually a pretty decent list)- I guess something like a clinic. But the event is more like just competing region vs region. Not really meant for anything else. Like Reply Quote

Nothing wrong with this event, but set the expectation going in. You may have a college coach running drills or the sideline but they are by no means writing your name down. Like Reply Quote

It was empire games a while back, run by someone else, and was boys only. It was a very big deal, a top event. Then something happened (not sure, organizer/sponsor folded/pulled out, something like that) and they stopped having it for a while. Eventually LILJ resurrected it and added girls to it.

We have seen teams have A kids go down and play on the B team to win tournaments, kids coming from out of state to play, etc. On the girls side there are a few out of state girls playing on LI teams.
