Legacy Slashers were 2-0-1

West Islip went 3-0

Carnage is A and swimming in the "deeper" end of the pool and ended up 0 - 3 losing to LI Tomahawks, Jesters Black and Viper A. Carnage is a good solid team who got a tough draw.

Stop it. Your son got cut amongst the best competition on the Island. Move on. There is separation between probably the top 5-10. But 11- 60 is on parity. There are kids that made it to Blue Chip that didn't get to pride games. Stop crying that your son got a raw deal.

Does not mean anything that Caputo's kids play on 91. Just Saying.

Wouldn't call any of those teams (Tomahawks, Jesters Black, and Vipers A) A teams. Solid B teams and the Legacy teams are a mess. Slashers are the better of the two teams in 2018.

If those are not A teams? What teams do you think are A? Extreme and Terps only?

So you are saying that there are only 2 A teams on LI for 2018? Terps and Extreme?
Everyone else is a B team?

A Teams from LI based on last years results and some from this year.
91 Extreme
Express Terps
Team LI
fl$
91 Orange used to be White
Outlaws Black
Wolverines
B Teams:
Jesters Black
Vipers
Outlaws
Tomahawks
Just my opinion. There are other teams that call themselves A but that's just in their program. Just to appease the parents all these programs have started calling teams AA, A, and so.

Jesters Black beat fl$ two out of 3 times last year and also beat Outlaws Black twice.

No that's what you said. I just said a few teams like Vipers, Tomahawks, and Jesters Black are not A teams. How many tournaments did any of these teams win playing in A brackets. I cant remember a single one.

Everyone else has to play and play "recently". Anyone who argues with this has not been on the fields from Shamrock to the OBLL to the JDRF. So go playyour way in.

But the Terps and Extreme didn't play in any of the tournaments? did they? why do they get an automatic.. FEAR!

Jesters Black won Blatant and Pro Player both in A bracket in the last 6 weeks. These other teams do not need to "win" the tournament to be considered an A team. They need to be able to compete in that bracket. Only one winner per tournament!

What A teams were at Pro player besides Jesters Black? Because you call a bracket an A bracket or a Team an A team doesn't mean they are that. Jesus Legacy called the Carnage an A team. Would you consider them an A team.

Which tournaments this year would you consider to have true A brackets?

What about last fall/winter?

we are all getting caught up in the AA, A and B stuff and it is very confusing - I suggest that going forward we follow the governments warning level - so you know the level of the team you are playing and how prepared you need to be

Severe (red): severe risk - You are gonna get a beat down
High (orange): high risk - you will lose but they cheat
Elevated (yellow): significant risk - game will go either way
Guarded (blue): general risk - we could win
Low (green): low risk - we will actually win a game

This is a horrible list but top two are correct ! Top 5 may be correct , then it's insane. You have two teams on that list that went a combined 1 and 5 Sunday!

You have to play in 2014 to be on there.... Extreme won Shamrock.

And they beat an all star team from NJ! How can anyone say this was not an A tournament. Either you were not there or you have no clue!

Two top level teams does not make an A tournament. You have no clue. I watched both games and the NJ team beat Extreme in first game and Extreme beat them in finals. FYI it wasn't an all star team. The NJ team threw players together to play in this tournament and then they all went back to their respective teams. Definitely not some tryout and selection process as an all star team would infer. There were some Dukes from PA and Patriots from NJ on there that my son played with at 3D in Florida. So he knew about them coming up to play together for this tournament and this tournament only.

An A tournament with A teams for this age group in my opinion would be as follows: in no specific order or ranking.

Extreme, Terps, Dukes, Crabs, fl$, BBL, fl$, TLI, 365 Lax, Jesters Black, 91 Orange and Patriots. If I missed some of the better teams no offense. Its just off the top of my head. Would love to see this play out. It never would but it would be nice. Throw in some of those 3D teams like New England and West Coast, Team Texas and a Cali team or two and that would be a real A tournament.

If I have no clue tell me where I am incorrect regarding the A teams I list and if this would not be an A team tournament. I will happily admit I was wrong.
