Our MissionWe are committed to providing our youths with positive experiences in a team-oriented sport. The game of lacrosse is a way for youths to learn valuable life lessons that allow them to grow into fine young adults. It is not our mission to try to develop every youngster into a college or professional level athlete.
And Away We Go!!!On Monday, March 10, the 7th/8th boys team will begin practicing and on Tuesday, March 11, the 5th/6th team will start. The teams both have a little space left on them. If you are interested in joining in on the fun, get in touch with Curtis Nelson. The 7th/8th team will practice from 5:30 to 7:00 at Ackerman on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The 5th/6th team will practice from 5:30 to 7:00 at Ackerman on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Games begin for both teams around April 20.
Second Annual Youth Jamboree Announced
In our first year as a program, we hosted a one-day jamboree that included
teams from Glencoe, Hood River, and West Linn. The event was a rousing
success.
As our program has grown this spring, we are expanding this year's jamboree to include 7th/8th grade teams AND 5th/6th grade teams. This event will be held on Saturday, May 17. Up to 6 teams will be included in each age group and will play 3 modified games each! The $175 registration fee amounts to less than $10 per player. What a great value! Registration Form is available here. For more information, contact Curtis Nelson (nelsonc@web-ster.com).
Girls Youth Team is a GO!!!As registrations have only trickled in, there has been some talk of combining our girls with some girls from Wilsonville to form a combined team for this spring. The leader of the girls youth team has been Tom O'Connor. Information is changing pretty quickly. You should contact him for the latest information.
Get Your GearWe have worked a deal with Laxworld for gear starter sets. These gear sets include helmet, shoulder pads, gloves, elbow pads, stick, ball, and mouthpiece along with a Canby Lacrosse T-Shirt and helmet decal. Prices are: Gear can be ordered by emailing Curt Nelson with sizing information. Gear takes about 2 to 3 weeks to be received. No gear will be ordered until payment has been received. There is NO requirement to get your gear through us. If you prefer to get your own gear, that is fine. You will need to purchase a T-Shirt and decal for $25 from us though.
You can mail registration forms and payments to: Curtis Nelson
Looking for SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring our program? We have an exciting thing going already. However, as a startup program, there are lots of expenses. We have covered the "core" costs already, but we need more help. We want to acquire practice jerseys, extra sticks, more balls, and practice goals/targets. We would also like to attend an overnight tournament in some other area of the state. And, we would like to get a "team pride" item - something like a gear bag, a nice jacket, or sweats for everyone. We already have some sponsors and are incredibly grateful for their generosity. If you would like to sponsor our team, please visit our sponsors page.
