Commonly Asked Questions

Does my son need previous experience?

No! All skill levels are welcome (beginners included).

Are multi-sport athletes allowed?

Yes! But you must attend over 75% of team practices, games, and events.

Am I allowed to play for another in-house spring lacrosse program?

No, you can only play for one.

What league do we participate in?

We are independent – we are not affiliated with MAYLA due to boundary waivers (our players come from more than one city). We will play an independent schedule, which means a mix of local tournaments and games against other local teams.
