Rebels are bad and won’t be part of the conversation by year end.

How does college recruiting work ?

Can someone please help me understand the age verification for the 2029 class. I read on here and heard that the 2029 class is the first class where age verification is going to take place. What exactly does that mean ? Is that for all tournaments ? And if that is the case, wont re-classes not be able to play in the 2029 bracket, given they will be 1 year older ? I feel like no one has a real hold or understanding on this. Thank you

What makes you say that? They were competitive this year. I’m not sure what “conversation” you mean. Will they be the best on LI? No. But will they continue to be competitive? Yes.

It’s tournament dependent.. so any 29 team that has holdbacks and runs a tournament age verification won’t be applicable.

Depends on the tournament this year. Some have the same date cut off as this past season of 6/1/2010. Some have no cut off. Have to read each tournament rules before you go to know. I believe the 2 biggest tournaments (NAL and NLF) have kept the same date as last year.

Igloo just lost 8 more players

And they must be in the grade with a 6/1/2010 cutoff

You are embarrassing yourself

From first to worst

Doesn’t really matter because so many people and teams cheat plus when it matters most….showcases and recruiting events the reclasses are more than welcome to play. See 91/Express…

From the kids, coaches and moms!

Where did they go ?

Totally false info. 8 may have left from the outset to bring roster down to 26 from season ending roster. Main core remains. Defense as always will dominate and offense will be surprisingly good.

They merged !!!!

Lost offense then? Any big pieces?

Who cares

The lsm who is staying is better than any of the players who left. By far.

Who merged?

They were so proud of their number one billing. Why would they all leave?

Big time? They got a few okay players at best.

They felt bad for the other teams being so bad and wanted to help them out

Are any rebels ‘28 players staying on ‘29 team?

One

Chaos only adds defenders because no coaches kids play defense.Its an easy formula.Coaches kids have ruled the roost on Chaos’s offense and have not produced.Even losing to a B team in the World Series qualifier did not wake management up.It did in the World Series though.After the attack line only produced 1 goal on the last day it was holdback time.Next year the lefty and righty current attackers are gone no matter who dad is.

Not one kid was cut from Alpine!

4-5 Chaos kids joining Power next year? there's got to be a better home

All these Express dads hating on 91 makes me laugh. Does 9-2 ring a bell!!

Yes it’s true that Chaos as well as Express will ramp up getting reclass players and out of state players, the players on Chaos which are not going to be affected is the college coaches kid as he’s a top notch player who is actually a 2030 and at some point will drop down and the son of the current HC. There are no non-coaches player at any position that would be protected as in years past. Talent at that level is not there as 91 must continue brand dominance at expense of very good local players and families.

Igloo will be fine. Solid core of loyal players will be taken care of by ownership and will remain competitive. T-shirts don’t matter at this point. Playing time and experience do.

Isn’t the 91 attack a 2030 grade wise but really a 29 age wise

Hes not a holdback and actually playing on age

He will move down to 30 soon enough. Doubtful he will stay at 91. It would make more sense to play on a DMV team

If he’s same age as everyone on the 2029 team but is a 2030 grade then he will be a holdback as soon as he plays for a 2030 team. Also he’s not from NY? So 91 taking opportunities away from kids in NY for a 2029 out of state? I think most people in lacrosse see how ridiculous this is and everyone outside of lax small world definitely can see how ridiculous it is!

Sounds like an igloo dad!! Your mad your son can’t guard a 12 year old!!

May be ridiculous as you say, May not like it, but holdbacks/prefirsts are in the blood of most elite players in a much larger % than any other sport.

Are there any Igloo dads left? Another kid just walked away.

Igloo parents and all top tier players boasted on how loyal they all are to each other as well as the organization. That changed in a blink of an eye once the last tournament ended. Never seen such a mass exodus from the #1 ranked team. The ownership or coaches must’ve have done something near the end to have promoted this.
