Kindergarten-8th Grade Rec Season (Boys & Girls)

What is the Program?

The program is designed to introduce boys and girls to lacrosse who are currently enrolled in Kindergarten through 8th grade and live in the Anthony Wayne School District.

This league extends from April to May, offers two practices/week, and games against other Toledo Area teams. Our volunteer parent coaches use the philosophies from our high school lacrosse programs to develop the skills necessary to play the game of lacrosse throughout the season -- cradling, passing, shooting, defense, etc. Focusing on the basics and applying them to a game setting is to prepare them for the organized lacrosse that continues into high school.
