  • June/July - YLM Summer Field games occur (10 games).  Games typically occur on weeknights and are played against other teams in the Twin Cities metro area.  The state tournament weekend is July 27/28.  You can see this link for more details  https://www.youthlaxmn.com/

 

12U and 14U teams will participate in the River Valley Rumble in Shakopee the weekend of June 7th thru 9th.

 

All other practices and games in June and July will be during the week. Yes, we respect your summer weekend family time!

 

Equipment

Equipment needed is lacrosse helmet, gloves, shoulder pads, elbow pads, lacrosse stick, athletic cup, mouthguard and cleats for outdoor summer field.

Volunteering

Eagan Lacrosse is an all-volunteer organization. Parents/Guardians of the Eagan Lacrosse community are required to volunteer in order to ensure a broad base of support. Parents/Guardians who choose not volunteer will be required to pay an additional $150 fee.

Each family will be required to fulfill 2 Dibs hours this season. We will offer a variety of volunteer opportunities throughout the season.

Opportunities include: ●  Season preparation tasks (i.e. equipment disbursement, re-stringing nets, etc.) ● Fundraisers - we will be hosting YLM jamborees and state tourneys that final two weekends of July. These will be the major opportunities for fulfilling DIBS.

A $150 deposit will be required at field team meeting at the beginning of the season. Checks for those that do not fulfill Dibs will be cashed 08/15/24.

You may choose to opt out of these volunteer duties by paying an additional $150 with your registration. The fee will be used to help find and pay for hiring outside workers in your place.

Tournament volunteer opportunities will be listed on our DIBS page closer to the tournament date. There will be many shifts available for people to sign up for to fulfill their 2-hour minimum requirement.
