Registration is open for the Milton Youth Lacrosse 2020 Season!
Winter practice sessions will now start in January so be sure to register ASAP. It is immensely helpful to get registrations in early so we can plan for the best season possible for our kids – get uniforms ordered, etc.
Please register now!
The Milton Youth Lacrosse Board of Directors is looking forward to the 2020 Lacrosse Season. There are several exciting enhancements to the program ready to go, including:
- All travel teams will now have NINE indoor pre-season practice sessions – all at the Union Point Sports Complex in Weymouth. January & February skills practices will include Milton High School coaches & players helping out.
- All Select Teams will now have contracted club coaches and regular weekly practice times - as well as three indoor practices in the month of March.
- PreK/K & 1-2 grade programs for girls & boys that will be run by CroART Sports. CroArt has partnered with MYL since 2015 on our WeeLax & Little Laxers programs and will now be bringing their enthusiasm & professionalism to our Girls 1-2 skills group. **Registration for all of these programs will open in the new year.
- The 7/8 grade boy’s group will practice with the Milton High School teams on a regular basis.
The Milton Youth Lacrosse Program is over 20 years strong, and each year the program is growing and becoming more competitive. As an example:
- The boys 7/8 Select team made the playoffs & lost in the semi finals
- The girls 5/6 Select team made it into the playoffs after an undefeated regular season
- Last season we had seven travel teams in the 3-4 age group: four girl’s teams & three boy’s teams.
- Several MYL alum are currently playing at the high college level, including Kelsey Kenney at Harvard & Aidan Carroll who just signed his letter of intent to Georgetown. Check out our website throughout the season for updates!
Milton Youth Lacrosse would also like to send a huge THANK YOU! to Cathy Smith, who tirelessly donated her time to Milton Youth Lacrosse for the past 15+ years! Her passion for the sport and endless dedication to growing the program will be felt for years to come!
We are happy to announce that Katie Conover, Head Women’s Lacrosse Coach at Stonehill College and Milton resident, will be taking on a larger role for the Girls program with help from Karen Harris, Beth Rooney, Rob Callahan and Anni Zukauskas. Katie’s influence in Milton’s Lacrosse program has already proven to be helpful, as her former player Lizzie Lane has been hired as Milton High’s Varsity Lacrosse Coach
Finally, while the program is strong & growing, we are in desperate need of additional volunteers. Some of the areas we could use help in would require zero lacrosse knowledge, e.g. Website administration, Social Media and Marketing.
In addition to that, we could use coaches at almost every level…it is a ton of fun and we will re-acquaint any past players with today’s rules and regs! Even if you have never played the sport before, please consider volunteering: You will learn very quickly!
If you have any questions, please contact Beth Rooney at (617) 922-2547.
