[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It probably depends on the team. I find it hard to believe that rec players just starting out would compete with or beat players from A level NGLL teams. And it does get pretty hard to get on those types of teams as you reach middle school if you have not been playing in late elementary school.[/quote] My two oldest daughters currently play in college and when they were coming up we had a lot of late starters completely pass girls who had been playing A level travel since they were 9. I love lacrosse but this isn't ice hockey or gymnastics where there are massive skill gaps. A lot of lacrosse skills are developed in other sports and can be refined quickly. I will say, getting on a team young makes it easier to stay on a team because the coaches are more likely to pick "their players" and "lifelong lacrosse players" because they don't want to lose them to other teams or sports next season.[/quote]
