See below. Here is the fat pos himself, Ryan McClernan, founder and originator of "holdbacks" and club lacrosse.. He is one disgusting individual involved in youth lacrosse and I wish someone could come up with a reason to get him the [lacrosse] out. Just pathetic and the biggest BS artist I have ever seen.

Actually a pretty good interview. How would he be the founder of holdbacks; did he invent pre-first? [/quote]

A good interview??? Are you kidding? No guess not., you sound serious. This man is a total POS and if you knew about him and how he operates you would understand. No he did not invent (your words) pre-first but he and his organization put pressure on parents of players to re class and this has been happening for several years. His mentality is having an older/bigger team will win more games. And do not tell me this is not true, he approached me with this re class crap three years ago when my son was in seventh grade. That was the last time he played for Crabs. I know more than several parents with the same story. This POS man is out for two things, money and winning at all cost. He is not respected in the youth lax world, he is just tolerated, nothing more. And if he decides to stay with his present team, 2021, as head coach, watch what the 2021 players do. They will leave Crabs 2021 in droves because the 2021 players hate him as a coach and as a person. Many of those players can find another strong team/club that would love to have them.

Wait, a private, pay to play sports club, which advertises competition goals to be of the highest levels, wants the biggest/strongest athletes, would like to turn a buck, wants to win, is openly geared for players that would like to play in college, and has turn over when athletes don't advance within the system? Sounds like, oh, the business model for every private competitive organization on the planet.
