[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for private school lax parents with older kids, if you had to do it over with a kid just getting to club level lax (e.g. 3rd grade) what club would you choose for the younger grades and why?[/quote] Consider opting out of this madness. It's probably a huge waste of time and money for most people. Good athletes with good hand-eye coordination can pick up a lacrosse stick for the first time in seventh grade and become excellent high school and college players. I've seen it countless times. The techniques of the game aren't that hard to master. Success in high school and college level will be determined more by genetics than by hours of practice and games in Grades 3 through 6. Bigger, faster, stronger, tougher kids with highly-competitive natures will be the high school starters and stars. Frequently these characteristics are inherited, not learned. The big star on my son's 8th grade team rarely got into a game in high school. The other kids had just physically passed him by. [/quote] Couldn't have said it better.[/quote]
