3/4 -- 2012 Practice & Game Schedules
Policy on Lightning/Thunder: All players & coaches must leave the field and get into a vehicle or seek coverage. Play may resume ONLY after 30 minutes has passed with no further thunder or lightning. 30 minutes for every bolt or roar of thunder . . . NO EXCEPTIONS!
Our first event is a free clinic for our new players. It will be Saturday, Feb 4th, there is a choice of attending at 12:00 or 1:00pm. All new players are strongly encouraged to attend, come learn more about lacrosse and have fun!
Our lacrosse season will begin March 12th and conclude right after Memorial Day. Games are Saturday mornings at Valley Forge Middle School. The 3/4 grade groups practice 2 times per week at Valley Forge Middle School. Specific practice times will be provided by your coach. You should receive an email from your coach by March 1st.
All players will need a girl's lacrosse stick (no mesh), regulation eye gear, a colored mouth guard, and a water bottle. Turf shoes, cleats or sneakers can be worn. If you need equipment, please take note of the coupons offered on our website.
No jewelry of any kind is permitted (that includes friendship bracelets). If your daughter has earrings, they will need to be removed (many get lost on the field, please get in the habit of taking them out at home.) This is a safety rule and referees are very firm.
3/4 players will receive a Quix Stix pinnie for use during the season. These pinnies belong to the league and are expected to be returned at the end of the season.
