Dear
7/8 Lacrosse Parents:
Welcome
to the 2010 Boys Lacrosse program! We’re ready to
launch this year’s practices and prepare for another
exciting season. As the 7/8 lacrosse representative, my
job will be to help your family stay connected to the program
and respond to any questions or concerns that might come
up. Below, please find the details for this season.
Practice:
Held Monday/Wednesday/Friday from 3:30 – 5:30 pm starting
Friday,
January 15.
Practice
Field: During January and February the 7/8 players
will practice on the turf field at Bainbridge High School.
In March, practice will begin at the new turf fields at
Battle Point Park. Note: There are limited restroom facilities
at BHS for changing, so players might want to change at
Woodward. There will be no access to the high school locker
room.
Gear/storage:
Players must provide their own gear (helmet, stick, pads,
athletic cup and mouth guard). New players in grades
3 – 6 will receive priority for rental equipment.
Players can store their gear in the lacrosse shed at Woodward
each morning that practice is scheduled. Ms. Kornfeld, a
teacher at Woodward, will make sure the shed is available
each morning, locked during the day and then open again
at the end of the school day. The shed is located just inside
the fence to the Woodward field.
Physicals/Code
of Conduct: A physical is required, but is good
for two years. If your player completed a physical for another
sport a separate physical is NOT needed. Forms are available
on the Woodward website. Please submit completed forms to
Ms. Mar at Woodward by February 1.
Games:
Games will start in early March. Schedules are not available
at this time; however, teams will typically play 5 home
games and 5 away games (Seattle/Tacoma area).
Coaches:
Coach Jack Visco, head coach Bainbridge High School, will
direct the program and announce additional coaches in February.
Certainly,
we’ll have more information as we get closer to the
start of the season. I’ll also use the www.bainbridgelax.com
website to keep everyone informed. Let me know how I can
help your family get ready for the season
Regards,
Rosie
