Walpole Youth Lacrosse

To all that have signed up for our New U15 spring league,

We are just about finished with the schedule for our season and will forward it to you as soon as its final. Games will start the first Friday in April and run right into early June. We will have several schedule practices later in March for all to attend . In the mean time we may try to get together on short notice at Turco turf field when we get a warm day possibly as early as Monday for anyone who can make it. I will send out a message on Sunday night if its on. We will also be taking the team to a tournament in Lexington the last weekend in March ( details will follow).

From this point forward we will refer to the new league as U15-FNL ( Friday Night Lights)

We are all excited to get our WYLL and our FNL seasons underway. Please encourage your sons to get as much running in this month on their own to help get them in shape and to keep working on their stick skills it will all payoff in the spring

Thanks

Coach O’Neill

To all Walpole Boys Youth Lacrosse:

We hope everyone had a great summer and are starting to get into the swing of things as Fall is fast approaching. We at Walpole Boys Youth Lacrosse are meeting in 2 weeks to start to plan the 2008 season. But for now we are jump-starting our season with the annual Fall/Winter indoor program.

The cost this year is $150/player. This is by far the least expensive program out there and offers the player almost 16 hours of field time at Forekicks. That’s less then $10/hour. We will be offering this to all 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th graders as of Sept 2007. No 3rd graders.

The program will start on Thursdays in November and run every Thursday through Jan. 24th. We will not be playing on Thanksgiving or during the Holiday vacation week. We will be offering ½ – ¾ of an hour clinics followed by 1 hour games every week. We will have special guest appearances form the Cannons, Jason Andalo from Walpole High School and other special guests.

I want you all to know how lucky we are to have this preseason indoor program. We are the only lacrosse town that I know of in Massachusetts that offers this to their youth. Because of this and our great Spring program we have the strongest youth program in Massachusetts.
