[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HS club games for March got shut down by the Prep, Gonzaga and Landon AD's and Heads. Efforts were made to get 6 teams together to play some scrimmages in March. SSSA, PVI and Bullis were in until those 3 dropped out.

Those schools lose the right to say they are "in it for the kids"...[/quote]

IAC Parent here.

"HS club games" is code for club programs trying to do more lining of their pockets during a pandemic, I'll take my son being coached in HS over club any day. [/quote]

Your son must play for a bad Club. [/quote] Not PP. Tell me which club practices and plays as much as 6 days per week for 3 months like HS teams. Tell me which good clubs or better have players that don't also play HS lacrosse. The answer to both is nada.[/quote]

Look - the point being made is that the HS coaches/ADs/Heads cruelly, and in contradiction to science, denied healthy teenage student athletes the opportunity to compete and develop in their sports all fall, winter and now at the beginning of the lacrosse season. Any venue that provides players the opportunity to train and compete, even if for a short period of time, should be embraced. Intra squad practice is NOT the same as competitive games and any HS or college coach knows that.  The whole year has been a big fail, and the lack of leadership is truly deplorable. [/quote]

Agree the situation is a mess but can't see that coaches themselves have much power as compared to ADs or HoS - coaches aren't policy makers in high schools.[/quote]
