let me guess you are a 27 parent in the heart of recruiting and are frustrated. Be patient it will all work out and just know that the other options were not any better so you made the best choice for your daughter. Signed, Capital Orange 26 parent.

Any issues with Stars is the direct result of St James leadership and not any one person in the lacrosse program. They choose to keep fees high, reduce practice time, and pay coaches less. SW is no one's boss and has no say in anything to do with money. Less experienced coaches iwas our problem. That's why we left.

glad I don't have a 2030 yet. curious how the 2031 will work though. so we need to either get on BLC or Stars for next year?


A majority of the invites for 2031 will go to BLC Blue and BLC Orange, BLC’s 2030 Orange Team folded so it likely changed the allocation of invites this year opening up slots for Stars, YJ, Pride, etc.


Too late. If you’re not on now, it is not happening.


You obviously don’t know how capital works. They won’t just take an entire team and name them blue. Show me any year in the last say 6 years they did that. They want the best talent period


If they are looking for the best talent, maybe they should think about inviting players from other clubs, not just BLC and Stars



What about 3D are they any good?


That club is a joke


i think there are talented girls on that club, but i don't know how that club is run.


Poorly and tons of playing favorites.


Is it still all parent coaching? the 29 team is talented. Did any of those girls try to make move over to Capital? It looks like they kept their core together. 3d's recruiting success has been on a giant down curve since 25'/26' and is more or less non existent now.


I know at least 1 made the jump to Cap Blue

Where did the BLC freshman mostly go?


Scattered between Orange, M&D DC, Skywalkers, and a few others.

it's called BLC


There are several tiny and / or slow girls on BLC 2030 who are unlikely to make Capital and girls on other local teams who are clearly better than these girls


Tiny and slow!?! That team must be horrible.


The team is good, there are some girls on the team who are not

Not allowed to really put a name out here. Its frowned upon here. Just ask around, but its a person involved with the St James for many many years
