First and Second Grade (1/2) Info
The lacrosse program for first and second grade is all about having fun and exposing the kids to the game of lacrosse. The league will provide each child with a lacrosse stick and gear to use during the season and a lacrosse sports tee for them to keep! An athletic cup for boys and mouth guards for boys and girls is required.
The official season will run the months of April and mid June 2025 for first and second grade. There will also be some optional indoor practices in March (3/30 and 4/1) that will be posted on the indoor practice schedule. We hope to get on the fields the first week of April, though it is weather dependent, so please watch your email for any updates.
Practice starting in April will be on Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30-7:00 at Kidsport.
Travel is not required at this age and there are not games on weekends, however there may come an opportunity to scrimmage each other at our local tournament or possibly travel to a tournament as an optional opportunity this year.
