Avon Lax Families!
Several
of you have been asking about fall lacrosse and this year has been a
real challenge for team sports! We have some GOOD NEWS and wanted to
write out to you with an update this morning!
As
you may know, ACSC has closed community access to all of their
facilities until further notice. This means that the field spaces at
PIne Tree and AHS are unavailable to us. In our search for local field
space, we determined that most of the area churches have committed their
open areas to local soccer programs. In addition, several spring sports
slid to late summer/ fall - which caused scheduling conflicts with
several of our youth players and coaches that play/ coach multiple
sports.
Luckily, our friends
at Avon Parks came to the rescue and offered us the lower area of
Avon-Washington Township Park for practices!
Fall Lacrosse is BACK, folks!
However...based
on the survey feedback that we received from you, Avon Lacrosse will
only be offering fall lacrosse for 14U and High School players this
season. As soon as things settle back down a bit, and ACSC allows us to
utilize the area facilities again, we will put together a plan to
continue sharing lacrosse with our younger players!
The details for our 14U/ HS Fall programs are below:
- This season will run from mid-August to mid-October.
- The commitment is 2 practices/ week and participation in 2 fall tournaments
- 9/27 - BearPaw: Great Midwest Shootout @ Eagle Creek Park (Fee is per team ~$65/ player)
- 10/4 - Empire Fall Classic @ Grand Park (Fee is $60/ player)
- While the fall season will be free of charge, the tournament fees will be required to participate.
- If you are a middle school/ high school player and would like to participate this fall, please register ASAP!

Please
register ASAP so we know if we have enough players to field specific
divisions! IF we have enough players interested in playing, we will have the coaches will reach
out with practice times/ locations! We'd like to get started next week
if possible so PLEASE get your player registered if they are interested!
If you know anyone else that may be interested in fall lax, please
share the good news with them as well!
Thanks and have a great weekend!
