[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two questions:

- [b]Why do the DC-area clubs only practice once a week?  Seems unsurprising that if the Baltimore clubs practice more, they are better.[/b]  
- Is Florida Select really that good, and if so, any specific reasons why?  Lax is not brand new in FL, but very few now-adults who grew up there played. That said, the state is full of good athletes, growing quickly, and you can practice outside year round.  [/quote]

Wish I knew the answer to your first question and wish my DD's team practiced twice a week.

As far as the second question, my DD has played Florida Select a couple times and they are extremely physical and aggressive when faced with a team that challenged them, willing to risk numerous yellow cards and injuring opposing players.  I heard they all play for the same HS and that the HS coach is the club coach but I have no idea if that is actually true.[/quote]

Girls lax teams from this area (DMV) play a very non-aggressive form of lax. It’s old fashioned and not terribly competitive. They need to step into the current decade and learn some toughness, grit and not to be so afraid of physical contact. Largely the fault of local coaches and clubs. Every time the local clubs go against top clubs from any where else (MD, NJ, LINY, FL, PA) they get killed because they have no real physical strength or aggression. This is well known by college coaches. BI players seem to be only ones locally who play the more current, physical game. It’s why they win. [/quote]
