Is this related to the incident with the 2030's or is this with the 2029's?

I have seen this pattern with my older kids. NY and MD are fairly even at young ages - then they separate during the 12-14 age years due to some age differences and puberty transition with MD teams winning much more. Then in 10th/11th grade everything starts to even out, the games are much more competitive, the girls are all basically the same size, and the rivalries start to become friendly as the college recruiting process begins.

Typical Hero's culture and antics. going to enjoy the downfall.

This post has to be in reference to this past weekend as I saw firsthand what happens when they lose. Came back after and played different. Sad actually. There is more to the sport than wins and losses. Winning 40+ games and losing 3 in 7th grade should be celebrated. Thats a heck of a year. Hopefully they don’t fall into the same trap as 28 Coppermine.

This is comical! Are you saying that Heros players are dirty because they are gritty? There are yellow cards that are used in the cases when fouls occur, that is why we have officials. Yelling? Cursing is a bit much but are we serious about yelling? If it is too hot, get out of the kitchen. Some of you parents are a joke

Yet very little turnover on the 2029 rosters. Hmmm

the games i have seen this happen its the refs fault. they need to get a handle on the game. they are a group of tough girls for sure and it can get dangerous pretty quick which ive seen with my own eyes.

LI parent here, whose daughter’s team has played Hero’s, we haven’t seen anything like what the original poster is complaining about. Tough, well played games that was exciting to watch.

Cut off for schools on LI is early December with varying dates decided by the schools.
When we first played MD teams we heard about teams full of holdbacks and such. Did not find that to be the case. There were maybe 2-3 girls that were noticeably bigger but things have started to even out by now.
When a MD team beats us that means they are good, and we look for things that to work on so we can compete the next time.

Your reply[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]
well your reply is refreshing. thank you. the size issues all even out for the most part. i do know a couple of the tallest girls in MD 29s happen to not be holdbacks. however cant speak to them all. as was said before you never know why a kid was held back when they were 5/6 years old. if it was a parent for lax purposes i havent met one yet.

So the Integrity coach jumped over to MDU. Probably took some players with him. This could put MDU back with the elites.

Probably needed a new club to expand his business. Not everyone coaches for altruistic reasons.

Not really. They lost their goalie and another good player to m&d. Losing their goalie will hurt them big tjme. Only one of the integrity players that came over is any good.

He took one of the Integrity goalies with him. She’ll do just fine for them I think. The one that went to M&D is a heck of a goalie, big shoes to fill, but I think she’ll do just fine.

M&D is rostering 3 goalies. It should be interesting to see how they split their playing time

It’s not hard to see they needed goalie help and the MDU goalie filled a big hole. MDU goalie is one of the best in the class. The other two were good and if I had to guess they understood the situation and accepted their roster spot knowing MDU goalie was going to come in as the top goalie. Says a lot about the team if they wanted to stay rather than taking one of the many open goalie roster spots at various other clubs.

Their coaches worked to find their two goalies from last year a new home, I know because we tried to get either one of them. End of the day, my understanding is, they both wanted to stay and fight to be the back up. Their playing time will be interesting but, if I had to guess, MDU goalie is going to be playing the majority of the minutes.

For those parents of older 29’s - Dec - Nov - Oct - Sept - August???? It will KEEP getting harder for your kids - they will be on a decline for years and ride the past glory to mediocre. For this younger kids - Mar -Apr -May -and June your kids will continue to have it easier and easier but continue to use the skills that pushed them through bigger / stronger / more mature kids. Who wins in the end? I know my bet.

LI Dad finds it funny to come on here and comment about "holdbacks". He comments about it on the 29 LI page too. I guess if you can't beat us on the field you try to do it on an anonymous forum.

I see that the UA 150 is accepting 2029 applicants this year. Is anyone sending their girls? I'm definitely considering it for my daughter, more for the experience than the recruiting aspect. I don't think anyone is looking at 29s yet but I think it might be a good experience for her if she's accepted. Anyone else considering UA 150?

Thinking about it for sure. My kid had a blast at american select, but the tryout politics really @ChillLaxin, so we are a little apprehensive about these all star circuits.

Depends on what you are looking for. Ua150 absolutely has the best swag but the worst lacrosse and worst coaching but the combine is cool. Best in class has worse swag, think the combine is coming along better now but much better coaching and higher level talent all around as they aren’t pushing for players from everywhere

I assume it is sarcasm, Maybe the Opposite day? Or a liquor cabinet raid ? This is a better opposite day post for Boys where Holdbacks rule and are in majority at better teams and schools.

Best in class. Biggest reason is that getting in make it easier to get in in 2 years when it matters. It’s the biggest recruiting event and 80-90 percent of invites go to kids who were there the year before.

Check the 27 threads. Multiple kids who are starters in top 10 teams didn’t get invited

It appears teams are not posting their rosters online anymore. The only team that has updated their roster is M&D.

I am not sure it really matters. Most people know who went where and in a few weeks when games are starting up those who don't will see the movement. Besides MDU and Integrity, I am not sure there was massive movement at the top. For what it's worth, next year all the teams get sports recruits for their players and it will be the most accurate to see rosters.
