Lacrosse at the YMCA in 2014
Girls and boys lacrosse is an exhilarating, fast-paced game that combines many of the skills kids have learned in other sports such as soccer, field hockey, ice hockey and basketball. This is the Y’s sixth year offering the program. This year we are thrilled that Boothbay Region High School has agreed to bring on a girls lacrosse team.
For the month of March on Wednesdays, the Y has opened the field house between 2 and 4 p.m. and is encouraging all girls and boys, second grade through high school, to come to the field house with their sticks (we have some to borrow too) to toss, catch, scoop and cradle and get the feel for the sport. No prior experience necessary. Join a friend for this open field house lacrosse time. Indoor balls will be provided.
Two clinics will be held to begin the season. The boys clinic for second through seventh grade boys will be on March 24, 4-5:15 p.m. and for second through eighth grade girls March 31, 4-5:15 p.m. During this time, coaches will be on hand to lead the clinics, work on skills and drills and simply have fun. It is also a time for the players to get to know one another.
A lacrosse parent meeting will be held on Thursday, March 27, 5:30 p.m. in the YMCA Coastal Club room. This meeting is to learn about practices, games, commitment of families, equipment needed and to answer any questions. It is highly recommended for all parents of both new and seasoned girls and boys players to attend.
Practices begins the last week of March/first week of April and league games begin the first week of May and go through the beginning of June.
