What skills are needed to play lacrosse: Skills are not as important as listening and paying attention. Lacrosse is a sport that is unique to most, but is a combination of soccer, football and basketball. Each grade has a number of new faces each year. There is no age where you are too old to try to learn. Friends, neighbors and old teammates end up fill the rosters to try something new and stay active in the spring.
Are there summer camps: Yes. North Hunterdon High School runs a summer camp in July and other local programs such as Q4 and Del Val High School have camps and summer clinics. Contact us for more information if you’re looking to do more.
How are teams divided: Teams are made up by grade level. Depending on registration numbers, we typically have a combo team for 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th, 5th/6th, 7th/8th. If enrollment allows, we may split the teams into individual grades. For safety reasons, the league allows players to only play up 1 grade but cannot play down.
