BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2028-9th Grade Fall 2024/Summer 2025

Morning moms and dads! I read with such enthusiasm and humor about the reclass thing. I have 5 kids (3 boys/2 girls). one of my boys was born late October, and prior to kindergarten, we held him back in school and we're glad we did (emotionally/socially)-side note-he does not play lacrosse.

My issue is with parents (someone mentioned the express family on an earlier thread) holding their kid back NOW and having him REPEAT 8th grade. Why? Is notoriety in lacrosse THAT important to you? Those are the parents that I just don't understand. It's ok if your kid isn't a star on age on his team but for some parents, that's just not OK. So we'll have our kid waste an entire academic year all in the name of HOPING that he kills it against kids a year younger than him. Good for you mom and dad-i'm sure you're sleeping well at night. I pray that it's all worth it and no major injuries come his way...all in the name of putting that shiny college sticker on the back of your truck. Pathetic.

New Rankings out for US Club Lacrosse. Venom is not even in the top 25 after the fall season? Is that correct? If so, wow they have taken a few steps backwards the past two years.

You people need help the kids are in high school stop complaining and no my kid is not a reclass he is one of the youngest 2028.

Can everyone stop spewing rational thoughts on here? The @ChillLaxin who thinks there is only one person posting negative things about holdbacks is going to come back on here and short circuit.

Mr. excuse maker: There’s a HS showcase this weekend, will your little guy be watching those big older boys? Keep telling your small, yet skilled, boy they are the ones keeping him from ever getting recruited and living out your failed D1 dreams.
