[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some "legacy family" posters seem unfamiliar with the concept of competitive club lacrosse. The best 24+ kids play for Capital. Then the next 24+ best kids play DMV. DMV is a strong program and kids can move up as they improve. There's also 100% guarantee some Capital players will be overtaken by more athletic DMV kids before 9th grade. Making the A team as a 2nd grader doesn't automatically grant you a "legacy" spot through HS.

The boys are supposed to earn their spots and work hard to keep them. That is what makes them strong players on a strong club.[/quote]

There is definitely an element of delusion.  I noticed one legacy parent lamenting that "MadLax is losing long-standing families who until recently were happy with the program, and would have continued paying the crazy prices for the next six years."  With or without this year's influx of BLC players, no more than half of the players on a Madlax 5th grade team will still be there for the big 10th grade recruiting year (and likely far fewer).  Better players will show up, year after year after year, and some of them will just be added to the team without having to try out (because they're really good players).  It is what it is, but the spots are not reserved for people who are comfortable and happy to pay.  [/quote]
