posted 12/01/2009 Commitment Level Required for Travel Lacrosse Lightning, Junior & Senior Level Teams
Prior to taking a position on a TYL Travel Lacrosse team please understand that when a player accepts a position on a team, they will be making a commitment to every other player on that team. The team will be learning and practicing new systems of play that will only be meaningful if ALL players learn those systems. Each player selected for a team will be expected to commit to the practice, game and tournament schedules throughout the entire Spring season and progress with the rest of the team.
If a player accepts a spot on a team and demonstrates an inability or unwillingness to live up to the level of commitment required by the team, TYL reserves the right to move the player from the team to another. In most circumstances, this usually results in a player moving a lesser competitive team.
All coaches value this commitment - if you are not fully committed, please do not take a spot from a player who is.

Online registration is now open at www.TYLacrosse.org
The fall program will be for both the boys and girls. Cost $30. No 9th graders!
Starting Sunday, September 20th, TYL will have our own dedicated box lacrosse field at Spring Hill Park. This will be similar in some ways to the field the children use for our winter session at the Sports Zone. The purpose of our fall lacrosse program is for the children have fun playing the game on a much smaller field that promotes an even faster pace, providing as many touches of the ball as possible with limited physical contact. Weather permitting, lacrosse will run through Sunday November 8th. (Season extended 1 week for weather cancellation)
Box lacrosse field highlights
- Full equipment, including mouthguards is necessary and not provided. Need reversible jerseys from spring season.
- No long poles.
- Limited hitting, stick checking only
- No goalies- special small goals with a normal sized crease forcing the players to hone their shooting skills.
- 6 v 6, Sub on the fly

Fall TYL Coaches and Player Clinic-
Featuring a Major League lacrosse pro and brought to you by Paragon Lacrosse. Sunday October 11th. Time- 5-7
New participants are welcome to play but MUST be both Trumbull residents and become members of US Lacrosse. No exceptions! The membership cost is $25 and can be completed online at http://www.lacrosse.org Proof of membership must be given to the coach prior to play. All spring 2009 players are already members of US lacrosse, so registration is not necessary. From an instructional standpoint, the fall season does not provide the same comprehensive beginners introduction as the spring season does. Winter and Spring lacrosse are better alternatives.
Directions to Spring Hill Park: Spring Hill Park is located above the school bus depot and near the town refuse facilities on Spring Hill Road. Turn into the school bus depot and follow the road to the right past the building. You cannot see the field at this point. Take the driveway going up the hill to the top. Field is on the left.

If the weather is at all questionable you need to call. Your coach will not contact you. Select 1 for little league fields and listed for Spring Hill update.
