Team Info:
14U: Teams will be divided into advanced and developing groups by our US Lacrosse certified coaches. Boys will continue to learn the fundamentals of the game, continue to learn how to strategize on the field and play with intention. Team placement will be determined during assessments the first two weeks of the season. The goal in placement is to foster growth of every player by providing an environment with teammates and opponents of nearly equal skills. Team placement will be based on athletic skills, lacrosse IQ (knowledge), stick work, footwork, level of commitment and attitude.
Practices: Tuesday & Thursdays – 5:00 – 6:30 pm
All games will be played on Saturdays.
Look to the Empire website (on team pages) for the most up-to-date schedules. Coaches and/or team managers will notify parents and players of any changes on the GroupMe app.
All new players will be expected to become members of US Lacrosse and returning players will be expected to renew membership to US Lacrosse. Membership fees will not be included in spring registration.
