Helpful Registration Information for 2024

We are excited to announce that all LYLC players will have five additional practices this pre-season. This was the top request from our end-of-year survey - to get more play time for the kids. Practices will be held on Wednesdays (boys) and Thursday (girls) at Millworks in Westford. Your team's coach will share additional details. Practices will run from February 28th through March 28th.

**NEW FOR 2024: Kindergarten Boys will have their own in-town program**
We are excited to announce this Spring that there will be a new, separate, Kindergarten Boys program designed to teach the fundamental skills to play lacrosse. This is 100% in-town program, with no travel. Participants will practice on Saturday mornings throughout the outdoor lacrosse season, mastering the fundamentals of lacrosse via fun games and exercises, drills, small-sided play and scrimmages. Players will be provided with a stick by the program, cleats and mouthguards are recommended, but not necessary. Program begins in April.

Parent Leagues:
Continuing on for 2024 both girls and boys will be playing in the Mass Youth Lacrosse League. No separate registration is needed this year - it is now all included!

Costs:
Registration fees for 2024 are $250 for all players U11 and above. We are pleased that we can continue to offer a discounted rate of $150 for U9 players. Kindergarten boys in-town program will be $100. We have also instituted a family cap of $500 per season on registration fees. The additional cost for Mass Youth Lacrosse League for boys and girls is included in this fee.

Early bird registration is available for a $25 discount until December 31, 2023. Regular registration ends on January 20, 2024. (Early bird registration is not applicable to Kindergarten boys in-town program)

Priority:
We hope and expect to be able to accommodate everyone who wishes to play.  However, should the LYLC need to limit enrollment for any reason, priority will be given to Littleton residents and students attending Littleton Public Schools and returning players.  Should we need to cancel a completed registration, you will be notified in writing by January 31, 2024 and all fees paid to LYLC will be refunded.

Scholarship information:
Littleton Youth Lacrosse believes in providing the opportunity to play to all who desire it, regardless of financial circumstances.  Scholarships covering registration fees are available.  Please contact Board President, Brendon Davis for information: bdavis@daviscos.com

Girls Kindergarten Parents:
We are accepting U9 registrations for girls in kindergarten; the girls U-9 team will be comprised of players across K – 2nd grades. While we welcome their participation, we also want them to love the game and not feel overwhelmed by the level of play. We’ve found that while some kindergartners are ready, others would be better served waiting a year to begin competitive lacrosse. If you are having difficulty determining whether you should sign up your kindergartner, please be in touch and we’ll help you assess their readiness. **NEW for 2024: Kindergarten Boys will have their own in-town practice program**

Uniform Information:
Ordering information will be coming shortly. We will arrange for times for players to try on sample uniforms if they wish.  To receive the uniforms before the season, the order must be submitted by February 12! We will be reminding you of this deadline often as it gets closer.
