Boys U13 – Classic League

• 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 at least two boys teams this year at this level
• Teams are mixed by grade
• Teams are balanced by ability - no "A", "B" team – as “equal” 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 - indoor and 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 
• end of season MBYLL Fort Devens Jamboree in mid-June
• The focus is learning the game and having fun
• Equal play time
• 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
