Virginia Boys Winter League
NO PRACTICES -- GAMES ONLY
Game "only" with a POSITIVE Difference
We have secured the two LARGEST indoor facilities in the area to host the VA Winter League. ALL teams will play at both locations.
- Playoffs and Championships for top teams in all Divisions.
- Champions will receive team awards.
- Outstanding players will be honored and receive individual awards.
START: Weekend of Dec 10 after Fall tournaments
END: Late Feb - just before spring tryouts
NO GAMES during the HOLIDAYS (Christmas and New Years week)
GAME FORMAT
This is NOT BOX lacrosse. The size of both facilities allows for a much more realistic game - closer to the outside field game. This will help teams and players prepare for their spring season. Seven game schedule - Players have the opportunity to sharpen their game skills in a competitive, organized, and safe league.
(2 Attack, 3 Midfield, 2 Defense* - and a Goalie)
*Long sticks @ South Run. *Short sticks @ The Box
much better for shooters and goalies
- Limited Body Checking - NOT Box lacrosse
Protect players from injuries prior to the spring season
- League starts in December
to allow teams to play in the many fall tournaments and not miss games. The season ends just prior to the spring season tryouts.
