LETTER FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Dear Player:

The Ashbee Lacrosse Club is for Boys in grades 1st through 8th residing in Lower Merion Township. This program has provided thousands of participants the opportunity to play in a competitive yet nurturing structure since its creation in 1974. It is important to note that regardless of one's physical size, athletic ability or even skill level, there have been countless boys and families who have benefited greatly from their Ashbee Lacrosse experience. Every boy is coached to fulfill his own potential while balancing his role within the frame work of the team as a whole.
It is known to many people that the introduction of Lacrosse at an early age will often develop into a life long passion for the game while establishing many wonderful friendships along the way.

We encourage you to consider The Ashbee Lacrosse Club for your family and friends. Please visit our website for more information.

Sincerely,

The Ashbee Lacrosse Club Board of Directors

CLINIC/INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM 

The Clinic/Instructional Program is for first time players in first and second grade. The goal of the Clinic/Instructional program is to teach the players basic stick skills, the positions, the rules and have a positive athletic experience in a nurturing atmosphere. This program begins in early April and ends in June. The players will practice one night a week and have a practice/scrimmage on Sunday afternoons. Any questions/comments contact Brian Vogt deerq@aol.com   

 HOUSE PROGRAM

We have a House Program for our 2nd through 4th graders. The players are equally divided based on evaluations.  The goal of the House program is to teach the players the basic fundamentals of stick work, the positions, the rules and ensure that the players have a positive experience. Each House League Team has a minimum of two coaches and will play an intramural schedule of 8 to 10 games. The season will begin the end of March and will end in June. All teams will practice one night a week with a intramural game on Saturday or Sunday. 
 

"C" Developmental Team:

The C Developmental Team is for fourth graders interested in playing travel lacrosse. All fourth graders are eligible to tryout for the C Team if they wish to do so.  The C Team has a more intense practice and game schedule than does the house league.  The team practices at least twice per week and has a minimum of one game per week (typically Sundays), with travel required for away games.  Consequently there is a higher level of commitment required on the part of the players and their families. Players making the C Team are expected to make lacrosse their primary sport in the spring. As the C Team will carry a maximum roster of 22 players, there will be cuts after tryouts.  All players not making the C team will play in the House League and are required to attend the house league evaluations.  Players that make the C Developmental Team will be charged an additional fee to the travel team registration level.

   
 
TRAVEL TEAM (5TH THROUGH 8TH) GENERAL PHILOSOPHY:

Registration is on a first come first serve basis and there will be a waiting list. The Club reserves the right to modify the team configurations including adding or dropping a team due to insufficient and adequate coaching volunteers.
Playing time will be affected if an effort is not made to attend and participate in practice.  Consideration will be given to bringing players up from the waiting list to replace players that don't adhere to the team rules.
