Can't blame him for going for the money. He is setting himself up for the long haul.

Is it true that Elevate lost to a town team today?

Yes to Huntington village..

Yes, it was a combo of their B and C teams that played HVLax

Here come all of the excuses.

Here come all of the excuses.

Elevate doesn't have a C team so that must've been there A team .

So play A team with elevate or C team with yellow jackets just write the check. All are welcome!!

I heard that elevate will and has welcomed lower yj kids to there top team without even a tryout…while dropping there own who did tryout. Guess it happens everywhere, so don't give me the quality stuff!!

Why did those quality girls lose to a town team?

Just because you play Travel doesn't mean you know how to play at a high level. Have you ever heard of a child not being able to find a travel team to take their money? Didn't think so

Wasn't someone on here months back saying how great the Elevate teams are? I guess Elevate is not yet the A program they think they are.

Here come all of the excuses.

With so many club choices, EVERYBODY MAKES TRAVEL IF YOUR CHECK CLEARS!

Yes there is a travel team somewhere for everyone. Not everyone is going to make the cut on YJ blue, it is a very small and select group. So here is the question, is the cost, time and effort of playing travel on the third, forth etc..team, or for some weak club worth it? Reality says if your daughter is on those teams to begin with, she will likely never get to the blue team. Obviously playing for another club she certainly won't. Some people are happy and realistic with their situation, I personally know many who are not, some think their kids is going to magically transform from the slow, limited skill ceiling kid that the rest of us see, to a alpha dog blue girl. If your happy with the team your daughter is on and are realistic about where she is headed, then yes travel is well worth it.

Many of the blue players do not see the field much. Only a few carry the team, the rest are there politically and could be on any team.

Truth is 6 kids belong... The rest could easily be on Jones. That's what the rest of us see and feel. Just because your kid is on top team doesn't mean a thing. Only to you. You payed for all those privates so you could gloat and say look at my kid. Whatever it takes is your mentality. Good for you but please don't think for a minute people think highly of you. Toolbag!!!

Angry much? Most kids on the team do not train privately. It's just a convenient excuse for why your daughter didn't make it. Maybe she's a good player also. But maybe she didn't make it because the coaches know you're a [lacrosse] and don't want her because of you.

Not at all Toolbag... Funny how you assume my kid is not on blue. And cmon now, we all know who does privates. That's just a convenient way for you to skirt the issue. Facts are facts open your eyes and you can clearly see the truth.

People need to be realistic. If your kid is ok you can play D3 lacrosse in college at schools just by playing PAL, High School and by going to a few camps with a video. If you love it and want the travel experience there will always be a club to take your registration. If want to play at D1 Northwestern that was pretty much decided at birth and no amount of clinics and personal training can change that

If you're kid is actually on blue, and you feel that she's one of only six, then you're the actual toolbag.

Never said she was one of six toolbag. Just live in reality. Oh yeah. Tell us again how well we all get along too. Pathetic. You're just a F&f mouthpiece.

We just want to thank the 2020 blue parents for the constant press releases that keep coming saying their children are the best team in the country. Very humble, well liked group of 7th grade parents LOL.

Anyone have any insight into how successful the new Levy Legacy team will be in this age group?
