[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fundamental problem is this: there are about 15-20 kids spread among the top three teams that have the skill and athleticism to play D1 level lacrosse. These kids don’t need to do anything to get recruited other than be seen and will have no trouble finding playing time. So the club system works for them. For the other 50 or 60 kids on these teams there is just a tremendous amount of luck in recruiting. The club system will provide some exposure and for a few kids in this group they will show out at the right time in front of the right coach, but there is a strong factor of luck in that. Things that enhance your chances are playing for one of the top private school teams (since that gives you some credibility with certain coaches) and having good grades so that’s not an issue. But still the club teams are basically a lottery ticket that might cash in terms of an offer (there’s obviously not much actual money in scholarships). Development has to be done outside this system and the best thing you can do is some combination of private workouts, lots of time in the weight room, and lots of time working on your game on your own.

Doesn’t that mean that True is the best option for the 50-60 kids you mentioned.    It’s cheaper and playing time for those kids won’t be a problem.  [/quote]
