[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your observations are true, but only with respect to a very small percentage of teams.   If your son is in 7th through 11th grade in one of the four elite programs in the DMV, then yes, the main emphasis is college recruiting. There is nothing dirty or funny about it, that is simply the objective of families on those teams. But there are tons of rec teams and less competitive travel programs and teams where lacrosse is played for fun and love of the game.   And by the way the team’s record is important because college coaches will assume that a 2-10 team is lacking in talent and be less likely to come to their games to recruit. [/quote]

Why do you all assume the kids on the four elite programs don’t love playing with their teammates?  You think you can put in enough individual  work over the years to end up being a D1 prospect without “loving the game”?  99% of the comments on these lacrosse forums are written by parents of kids who didn’t end up being elite and never played on a top team. Trust me, the parents and kids on the “4 elite teams” are having plenty of fun.[/quote]
