You mean the 2024 Capital team that is undefeated since the Fall? Also way to bash a couple of 7th graders, takes big man/woman to bash kids you "know personally". Here is a novel thought, if your kid is not getting playing time on a large roster than switch clubs, last time I checked none of the kids were under contract. |
Thank you for proving my point. |
What is your point? That parents don't have free will? That parents are too stupid to understand that on a large roster team if their kid is not in the top 18ish they likely will not get a ton of playing time? That most clubs are for profit or need fees to exist? That the primary goal of a club is to win games at the highest level possible? I keep seeing all these threads and comments about scams, etc. They are not scams, the information is all out there for a parent to make an informed decision. This is really not that hard with a little bit of diligence and a little bit of reality as it relates to your DD/DS ability. |
| Anyone who charges 95 for a tryout is a acumbag. Anyone who also puts implied pressure to pay another 300 for a tryout camp should be in jail. |
How much should they charge for a camp or tryout? $0 or name the amount. |
$0 for tryout. Camp is a whole different issue. |

Simple solution, don't try out for that team. Problem solved. |
Is the $50 they actually charge for tryouts more palatable? https://nextlevelspartans.com/team/boys-travel-team-tryouts-2019-20-season/ Or the $175 for the tryout camp? https://nextlevelspartans.com/camp/boys-wes-elite-camp/ You can complain about it but at least complain with accurate information. |
| PP goes on every thread to complain about DC Express and how much they charge. I think his rhetoric got spun into NL. |
| Where does next Level practice? |
| Indoors during winter off river rd near dc. Outdoors at washington episcopal and a little at the heights. |
| Dont know about pg count fields. |
Yes parents are oftentimes "too stupid" because they are misled - that Madlax will develop their kid w/ their awesome coaches but aren't told 1) our coaches are paid to win, we really don't develop every player despite that's what we are marketeering 2) we carry a bloated roster too big to get every player enough gametime- feed the eagles, starve the turkeys - more income for us 3 If you're on the DMV team, you are really SOL because without notice we will bring in ringers from Capital team to take major share of game time. Not PP, it's a shame to see kids that have been w/ Madlax for multiple seasons that don't have stick skills or game IQ - what the heck is Madlax doing but taking people's money? |
| Madlax kids, yes even DMV kids, get to play at the college level. I think the owner is a pure douche, but his Madlax brand name is recognized all over. |
