Message from the President
I hope everyone is doing well during these trying times. Hopefully we will soon be back to "normal", whatever that may be in the future. As an organization, the board met recently and decided it would be best to not try to try to play over the summer. There were too many unknown factors involved. We do plan on trying to do something in the fall like we have in the past.
Going forward, we will need more volunteers possibly. We are projecting someone to lead up the COVID 19 task force. We will do everything possible to get the kids back on the fields.
If you are interested in volunteering on the board, we are always looking for help. You can email me HERE. We typically meet one time a month in the off season, and twice a month during the season. Please consider helping.
Stay safe this summer and let's hope that school will be open in the fall and we will be able to play lacrosse again in the fall.

- Coaches, college and high school players as well as some of our older youth players will be on hand to work with the boys.
- We will be using lacrosse sticks and soft lacrosse balls only, so no pads/helmets are needed. We will have sticks available for those who need to borrow one.
- The Spring-Ford HS Coach and Players will simulate a game for the first 5 minutes to give the parents and children an idea of how the skills they will be learning would translate into a real game.
- We will teach some basics, play some fun games using some of these skills, and provide an overview session about the sport and our program for parents.
- We will have a brief information session for the parents explaining our program and the sport and be available to answer any questions you might have
