LEARN HOW TO LACROSSE FOR GIRLS

FRIDAY, JAN 27
4 - 6 PM
PARKER FIELDHOUSE

Hawks and Cougars Lacrosse
along with the Chap Lax Coaches and Players
would like to invite ALL GIRLS to come learn about the
"...fastest GIRLS game on two feet.."--Girls Lacrosse!

High School and Youth Coaches and players will be available to explain and demonstrate the game, the equipment and give YOU a chance to try your skills with a GIRLS lacrosse stick.  Experienced players will get a chance to meet and get tips from our local High School Coaches and Players!

Girls lacrosse is EXTREMELY different than the boys game!  Girls lacrosse has NO CHECKING or contact but still has all the speed, skill and excitement of lacrosse.  Girls lacrosse has a higher focus stick skills and running and, some say, is MORE GRACEFUL that boys lacrosse.

INFORMATION
 

The CYLA (Boys) and CGLA (Girls) are changing from grade based to AGE BASED DIVISIONS consistent with USLacrosse guidelines beginning in 2012.  Some returning players will be required to change teams.  Boys will no longer be able to "play down" in a lower division for any reason.   Please consult the eligibility chart below to determine what division your player will be in for the 2012 season and contact your coach for more information.

AGE (On 8/31 prior to season)	BIRTHDATE (Born on or after)	TYPICAL GRADE LEVEL	DIVISION	REMARKS
14	9/1/1996	**	U14/U15	14yr olds who HAVE NOT ENTERED 9TH GRADE are eligible to play in this division.  Any player already in 9th grade is NOT ELIGIBLE to participate in the CYLA.
