So if the roster talent is relatively even in the middle or the bottom of the roster you honestly don't think that the kids that pay for extra training or camps or that have siblings that are also paying in don't get preferential treatment? Come on man!

Don't forget to bring a ball that you will donate to the YJ nation!

What is the purpse of bringing a ball - for real?

You are such a weasel , if it's even , which it never actually is , yes other things are taken into consideration. Is the kids parent a spineless weasel , is the kids parent the type to blame nonsense on their kids lack of playing time , yes many things considered. You are such a [lacrosse] if you even think anyone was thinking the relatively even nonsense , you are such a coward you will not even put your actual thoughts in writing, go to bed you cowardly weasel and pretend you have a pair.

YJ 101. If you have an older sibling who plays for a top YJ Blue team
No matter if there are more deserving players who are better than girls who are younger. You get the benefit of the doubt and make the top YJ team for your age group. End of story. You get the benefit of " legacy " players. Open up your eyes

Logic. That kid has genetic potential, your kid is a crap shoot.

Sure...go look at the alumni pages on the top club websites (YJ and M&D for example) and then pick some second tier clubs and do the same. Tell me what you see.

Go to a showcase event and look at who's standing on the sidelines watching the top teams play. Then go watch the Metro vs. Storm game at the same age and tell me what you see.

Now tell me about the one kid who never played club who went on to Syracuse, Maryland or Northwestern to try to make your silly case.

OK wait a minute,
Think about this a minute. If Coach Rose put weak players on the top team because of their name do you think her top teams would be so strong or would they be middle of the road teams. If your kid is not a strong runner or your kid has weak stick skills they are not going to last on the (old days) Blue team. The reason there are two blue teams is because of the people who would rather complain than send their kid out and train!

What is the tryout fee for the 1,000 kids you mention?

4-5 kids can carry a team, the rest can be supporting players or just stay out of the way

In SCGL or PAL 4 or 5 girls can carry a team and even most summer tournament games, Bring that sorry [lacrosse] strategy against an elite team and you will get mopped up.

I am not a Y.J. parent . My daughter never played for Y.J. and has already committed to a D1 school. To the parent calling everyone a weasel, all I have to say to you is you sound like a very immature, uneducated bully that can only express yourself with vicious attacks because you lack to educational skills to debate with facts. truth is if the talent is even, and despite what you say it often is, the "tie breaker" goes to the big mouth parent willing to buy there way in because there daughters lacrosse career is overly important to them. Now if you and the rest of your Y.J. think tank really want to meet me so I can say it to your face, we can meet at the P.A.L. center and debate this in person, though I doubt you have the integrity to accept my offer

Believe whatever you want to, but that's the reality. You might have noticed that M&D and Skywalkers show up to tourneys with 16-18 kids and the 4-5 studs never leave the field, why do you think that is? Most summer seasons consist of 4-5 competitive games for the top teams and the rest are blowouts, this is when the rest of the team gets to score goals and get playing time - everyone is happy, kids score, clubs justify 24+ players on a roster

Heard the 91 girls tryouts had a lot of girls, and no guarentee to returning players

Wrong thread and nobody cares, but thanks for the update!

Seriously if you are going to call people uneducated you need to learn the difference between their and there, among many other issues. If you are on here trying to bring down 11-12 year old kids then yes you are a weasel. The fact that you are trying to brag about your daughter when no one cares tells me again just a weasel. The fact you are on the YJ thread when your kid did not play YJ tells me you are a weasel. The fact you are asking to meet at the PAL facility tells me you are a complete tool and know for a fact you would not speak your mind to these parents. You apparently think you know who they are so the ball is in your court you weasel ,go ahead go up to one of them and tell them their kid does not deserve to be on the top team. Bye bye weasel.

where to start with someone of your limited intelligence? Lets start with the there, their comment, sorry missed that one when auto correct changed it. as for the rest of your ineptly crafted retort, lets start with your original montage of stupidity, it was you that said "You are such a weasel , if it's even , which it never actually is , yes other things are taken into consideration", to this I say it seems that YOU are the one "on here trying to bring down 11-12 year old kids then yes you are a weasel" , and if I may, not only are you doing it , your doing it girls on your own club.

You then went on to cleverly craft this gem "You are such a [lacrosse] if you even think anyone was thinking the relatively even nonsense , you are such a coward you will not even put your actual thoughts in writing, go to bed you cowardly weasel and pretend you have a pair." to that I said before, and still stand by my quote " truth is if the talent is even, and despite what you say it often is, the "tie breaker" goes to the big mouth parent willing to buy there way in because there daughters lacrosse career is overly important to them. " and thankfully, your newest post has proven me to be correct.

And lastly I state my daughter is a D1 commit because
A. I am very proud of her accomplishment
B. If I don't , people such as yourself will be the first to say "your daughter isn't good enough to be a Yellow Jacket/ D1 athlete.

As for meeting you at The P.A.L. center, I just wanted a real cowardly weasel to know that I am more than willing to debate them face to face without fear or hiding behind a key board, much like yourself

I would like to pose this question to Carol Rose (in an admittedly cowardly anonymous fashion):

Now that I nderstand your loyalties to legacies, how do you explain preference for outsiders over kids on your second and third teams who have been working hard for years to get a shot at making your top team?

When you put a new outside player's name on a fall tournament roster before tryouts have even taken place, it just reeks. Maybe you thought that choosing a tournament that occurred AFTER tryouts would fool us (ie. T3 and Lax for the Cure)?

We may be silly enough to keep coming back year after year, but we are NOT fools.

You hit the nail on the head - you're silly enough to keep coming back year after year. She's NOT a fool either, so she knows that.
