[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why in the world are we comparing rec and travel.  Rec is not year round.  Rec plays in the spring and travel or club plays fall, some winter training, spring, and summer.  I know there are more opportunities for kids to play box with rec now but it used to be that you had to be “invited” by a coach.  Some of these coaches didn’t invite kids who really wanted to play and what were they supposed to do?  Not play?  Travel lacrosse was a great fit for these kids.  And before someone says maybe the kid wasn’t good enough to be invited, everyone knows that isn’t always the case when you have parent coaches and the drama/politics that goes with that.  True doesn’t have parent coaches.  They have nice kids, good coaches, and are trying to run a good program.  Can’t make everybody happy but they do have a lot of boys that have fun, are talented, and generally nice people to be around.  So let’s stop comparing how rec teams can clean up true teams.[/quote]

Yeah but still McLean Dulles South or Vienna AAA would beat True VA teams [/quote]
The only team at the 14u level that could beat true va is Dulles South having 2 Nationals LC 29s and the rest of the team consisting of DCE 28s and top Hammers 28s.[/quote]

I am pretty sure that U14 team won the Fall Brawl Tournament last weekend.  [/quote]

They did. That team was mostly composed of 28s (I'd say about 50% had DC Express helmets) while at least Arlington and Vienna were 29s.

They also seemed to be the most organized of all the teams I watched. Pretty clear that had held practices. They were the only team that regularly ran an LSM out on the field. Most other teams did it sporadically. They also seemed to be the most organized when dealing with the Fall Brawl atypical penalty system by having one of their LSM start right behind the offensive penalty taker/fast break starter. I.e., the idea was that the fast break player would be either slow or indecisive allowing the LSM to use the long pole to check the ball out before the player could pass it ot the offensive players.

Thank you for cracking the code for us.  [/quote]
