| 3 power clubs?? I think VLC has more on age kids who have comitted to D1 programs. They also defeated Next Level the last two times they faced each other. |

Next Level 23’ and DC Dogs are miles better than VLC/DCE. Vlc hasn’t played NL since all the DCE kids moved over to NL. Arguably, NL and DC dogs are #1&2 in the nation, but I’m sure 91 would have something to say here. |

| If NL and DC Dogs are 1 and 2 in the nation than it must be a really down year overall for the entire 2023 class, at least in terms of club lacrosse teams. |

Mythical rankings don’t matter at this point. DC dogs recruiting success speaks for itself. Next Level is a bit ahead of VLC and DC Express is a bit behind them. I don’t think any other clubs have any recruits yet. D1 is 90% done. |

| Hammers lacrosse has 12 2022 recruits and 15 2021 in the past two classes. Many ways to get to the next level outside of just these four clubs. |

| Both DC Dogs and Next Level have good websites with current rosters, game schedules, recruiting info, links to highlight reels, commitment info, etc. DCE has the most archaic and out of date website. You can not find any information on their current rosters, schedules, recruiting info, or highlight reels. It's a joke. With incredibly low 2023 commits at this point in the game, maybe they should learn from the more successful clubs and get their act together with their website. How hard can it be, especially when every player is spending $3K a year. They deserve better. |

| Dce’s 2021 and 2022s were exceptional. A website doesn’t matter. |

Genuine question - I have never heard of hammers lacrosse.
What is Hammers lacrosse? Who is owner, where is it based, when was it created, who coaches their teams, how many years do the field teams for, etc…? |

Never mind. Found their website. Guys, you shouldn’t be bragging… about commitments… or really anything. Just sit down and shhhhhhh.

Almost 30 players is the 21 and 22 classes playing at the next level. Yea if I were in charge of one of the big four clubs I would not want Hammers to let people know either. |

Now this is funny. Pretty sure VLC played DCD tight this fall/summer and the NL games, against both DCD & VLC, haven’t been close. But glad Team Dad has justifications to make him feel good. |

Websites matter in this day and age, and if you don't think so then you're either in denial, clueless, or old. Websites provide PR for teams, their coaches, and players. It's another level to their Instagram and Facebook pages. It's a consistent base for all information about the club, its players, and coaches. Clubs need PR to get information out, grow, advertise and expand. Players need PR to help get the word out about them for college recruiting. Madlax, even with all its faults, has non-stop PR and a very informative website - it does a lot for them and their players. Next Level's website also has tons of information and does a lot getting the word out about its players. These players are paying $3K per year to be on these teams and many of them hope to play in college. The teams with good websites and social media provide a better and more complete package for those players. DCE's website was last updated about two years ago, so it was actually more current for the 2021 and 2022 teams (maybe that helped the recruiting for those teams). Currently, rosters are really inaccurate (some players listed moved over to NL two or three seasons ago). Coaches are slo inaccurate, some current players are not even listed on rosters, college commitments are not listed, and very few highlight reels are linked (the two that are are three years old), even though they have the buttons on their website. It's lazy and telling about how the club is managed. How hard is it really to either ask for a parent or player volunteer or hire a professional if no one in management can handle the job. It would take a few hours to update and fix once or twice a year. The players deserve it. |
