Outline of Framingham girls grade 5 & 6 (U13) lacrosse program

• Philosophy:  We provide a positive, instruction-oriented program for girls both new to the sport and provide skill training to those who have played before.   
• We believe that lacrosse should be fun for the players, and provide a foundation for building character that will instill teamwork, discipline, integrity, sportsmanship and respect to other players, coaches and parents.   
• grades 5 & 6 - we expect two girls teams this year at this level   
• Teams are mixed by grade   
• Teams are balanced by ability - no "A", "B" team as equally as possible   
• (optional) indoor sessions at Forekicks in Marlboro on Thursday nights from 7-8 starting January 9 and going through March - week off for Feb vacation     
• Equipment:  All practices - preseason indoor and spring outdoor are "real" practices and players are expected to have all required equipment.      Link to our list of equipment
• 2 practices per week starting when the Town releases the fields which is entirely dependent on weather - hopefully by end of March   
• Metrowest games on Sunday starting end of March/early April - depends on other Towns and field availability     
• The focus is learning the game and having fun   
• Equal play time   
• End of season Jamboree in mid-June
• At this time we have NO dates or times - we are almost entirely volunteer based so practices days/times are entirely dependent on field availability and volunteer coach personal schedules   
• Uniforms 
  • Prior season uniforms can be re-used
  • New uniforms can be purchased from Brine Sporting Goods with locations in Maynard and Concord
• Girls U13 Select team: for spring 2020 T.B.D.
