Our club teams are intended for players ready to dedicate their spring season to lacrosse—meaning we expect our players to prioritize their MLC commitment (including practice attendance) over other sports in the spring season. That said, the team will maintain its spring-oriented approach to allow our players to play other sports in the fall and winter seasons.
As in the past, we will continue to offer optional (and free) fall and late winter/early spring skill sessions to develop stick skills and game awareness. Additionally, we will have several fall competition opportunities, but we do not anticipate participating in formal tournaments during those times.
