SPRING REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Registration for boys and girls opens in TeamSnap at 8 AM on November
4th and closes at midnight on January 15th, 2023.   This year we WILL
NOT be able to accommodate late registrations, so please plan accordingly.  
Also please note that our registration fees go up after December
31st, 2022.

Before you register, you need to make sure you have a valid US Lacrosse ID:

US Lacrosse membership is mandatory for all SFYLAX players. Membership provides lacrosse injury insurance and must be valid through 6/5/2023. The fee for US Lacrosse youth registration is $30. New and existing players can check their current membership, register, or renew at https://www.uslacrosse.org/.   You will not be able to register for the spring if you do not have a valid US lacrosse ID.

You will also want to find your child’s uniform from last season and have them try it on if they plan to reuse it.

Once you have a valid US Lacrosse ID and know whether your child is reusing their uniform you can click HERE to register:

Uniform

    • There will be a question during registration as to whether your child will be using last year’s uniform and the number on that uniform.
  • If you need a new uniform or part of a uniform:
    • Uniforms (Boys: Reversible Jersey and Shorts, Girls: Reversible Jersey/Skirts) will be purchased separately from the SFYLAX registration process. After registering there will be a link to order a uniform if you need one.  The Boys and Girls uniform pieces will be at the top. Additionally, you can visit the site at https://stollersports.com/store/index.php?productCateg=306 and order your uniform now if needed. The required pieces will be at the top of the store.   We are still reusing last year's uniform design (boys) so if your son’s uniform still fits and is usable you can skip this.   A third-party vendor will take the order and ship the uniform to your address.   There are sizing charts and you will need to request a uniform number and provide their grade.  We will be reviewing numbers prior to the final order submission to limit duplicates where possible.  The uniform cost is $55, this does not include shipping.
  • If you have a uniform in good condition from a previous year and would like to donate it please bring it to the first winter thaw practice on 2/4 or contact our Commissioner at Commish1@springfordlacrosse.com to make arrangements.

*In addition to the uniform (Reversible and Shorts) the store has other Spirit wear including a shooter shirt.   The shooter shirt is not a required part of the uniform but is a preferred (by lacrosse players) shirt to wear underneath the pads.

 

Mandatory Fundraising

As our main league fundraiser, we will be selling Fundraising Discount Cards again this year providing discounts and special offers for local businesses.  We will not be assessing this fee during registration; however, we are requiring each family to sell 5 cards to help support the league.  We will be distributing the Discount Cards, at the first practice for you to sell.  We will be working on opportunities for kids to be able to sell outside some of the businesses if they are having issues selling on their own.  We plan to offer incentives for families to sell more than 5 cards.
