[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a question.  My DD is in middle school.  I have been told by people from other parts of the country at lacrosse tournaments and camps that Capital Lacrosse Club has a reputation for entitled, rude families and extreme backroom politics.  I have heard it from more than a handful of people (basically strangers or new friends, all unrelated, so no agenda).  It comes up when they ask where my DD will play club in high school.    Not everyone but enough say it that I am concerned.  These people say we should go to a Baltimore club for high school because the entitled/snobby rep is known to college coaches too.  That would be a big move though and hard for us to do.  We are trying to decide what to do for next year.  We don't have relationships with high school coaches here as my family doesn't go to a big lacrosse school.

Has anyone heard what people are saying about this new club in other parts of the country?  Did they make a good impression on other teams this fall?  Will they be able to get colleges to watch the girls in the next few years?  Have they generated any buzz?  Will the name change help or hurt them?  Has anyone heard if people think this high school club going to succeed and grow?  [/quote]
There are many clubs in Northern Virginia that are well run, good families, and top players go on to play college lacrosse.  Cardinal put players as schools like Duke, FL, and Penn.  Depending on where you live driving to Baltimore would be a crazy family sacrifice to make just to play on a club.  In the end, it is what the player does not the club.  Pick a team you will enjoy.  I would also not assume that Capital is bad based on reputation.  Find out for yourself.  Your daughter will be playing with the other players and not the parents.[/quote]
