For boys, NE Top 150 and Good to Great are both solid NESCAC camps.

Unless your kid plays for Landon, Prep, Gonzaga or PVI and his coach can politic him into the pre-write of the roster, it's a $175 t-shirt. It is the most corrupt money grab thing on earth and a waste of time. Your kid will play 5 mins or so as one of 5 kids at his position in 6 or so 20 minute running half games and that's it unless you paid the pipers to steer your kid on.

He will be a freshman at one of these schools. Is it best to wait until after his freshman year?

Yes.

I have a different opinion. UA tryouts for most kids aren't about making the team but rather about being seen by the 100 coaches who attend the try out. It is local (no hotel and no travel) and that is more coaches than you get in one place than almost any other event. Also this year they have divided the UA team into two divisions: rising 9-10; and rising 11-12. Yes, more money for them from kids who make the teams, but that means there will be a lot of kids your son's age trying out this year.

How about you just chill out and let your son play the game for fun?

I agree, let him play in the Under Armour tryouts. It will be fun. He will be around kids like himself who love lacrosse. It will be a good view into the world of showcases and he will know what to expect when he goes to real showcases.

Landon lost to Sssa?

I think Saint Stephens is very good. Landon was lucky to beat them in the first game. They play Bullis in the championship

Another parent who knows nothing about lacrosse. SSSAS has a good team this year. Landon has a much weaker team than last year, but they were not "lucky" to beat them in the regular season.

The best two IAC teams will play in the championship game, which is great. Bullis has a stacked team this year.

Bullis is loaded this year.

IAC finals should be a good one this weekend!
