Registration for Kelly Post Girls Spring 2021 lacrosse is OPEN...
Welcome to the 2021 Kelly Post Girls Spring Registration. We thank you for coming out to play with KP! It's our pleasure to share with your daughters the sport of lacrosse. We hope that they will love it as much as we do! If lacrosse is new to you as well, we know you will love it too. We're here to help you be part of your daughter's lax-journey. We have many opportunities for you to coach, team parent, etc, so please don't be shy about volunteering. We will train you to have fun while helping other girls grow into strong young women while having fun on the field. It's a job that you'll wish you started sooner - I know I did.
Special note on Refunds and Payments:
*In order to address COVID-19 uncertainties and give our members a little peace of mind, we have limited our pre-season expenses to be in the same strong position we were last year to provide refunds and credits if necessary.
*We have also added a payment plan (1/3 down, full pay by 2/28) to make it easier for you to sign up now, which will also let us plan for the proper number of coaches when the season starts.
-Dave Briglio, Commissioner

EVALUATIONS: Evaluations will be held in early January 2021; specific date(s) and location(s) will be determined at a later time.
NEW DEVELOPMENT TEAM OPTIONS: sometime during the spring season is complete, we will hold tryouts for summer teams that will play at 3 or 4 tournaments. This will be an optional, extra payment, team. If your daughter may be interested in being considered for the development team, please check the appropriate box (Tyker, Lightning & Midgets only) later in this registration. There is no financial commitment at this time; we simply want to gage interest for that team.

TRAVEL TEAMS?...
...All Lightning-Midget-Juniors teams travel for approximately half of their games. We play other Rec Programs in the MYLA league.
For Tyker, we have primarily "in-house" teams who play each other. But We will have 1 or 2 teams who travel similar to the older groups. Please check the box in this registration if your daughter is a Tyker player would like to play on the Tyker team(s) that travel to play other MYLA Rec programs. If she decides later on she doesn't want to play on the travel team, she can play in the house teams - no problem.

KELLY POST GIRLS LACROSSE
CLINIC OVERVIEW 2021
Thank you for registering your daughter for Kelly Post Girls Lacrosse Clinic!
The purpose of the clinic is to give the girls an opportunity to learn fundamental lacrosse skills in a fun and organized environment. The first five sessions will be spent rotating through stations at which the girls learn different skills; i.e. throwing, catching, ground ball pick up, shooting, defensive and offensive positioning. The last four sessions will add scrimmages.
SCHEDULE:
The season will begin in late March and end in late May. There will be no session on Easter.
Teams are expeted have a one hour long practice for the first four Sundays at either 3pm or 4pm, but the days and time will be confirmed after field space is assigned to us.
The last four Sundays will add scrimmages between 3pm and 5pm. After teams are assigned you will receive an email from your daughter’s coach with a fixed schedule.
EQUIPMENT:
Kelly Post will provide each girl with a team shirt and a pair of shorts.
Each girl is expected to bring their own regulation stick, mouthguard, protective eyewear* and water bottle. Please label all items!
GIRLS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PLAY WITHOUT A MOUTHGUARD OR EYEWEAR.
You can get mouthguards, sticks and eyewear at most sporting goods stores (ex: Lacrosse Unlimited, Dick’s, and Sports Authority).
Your daughter may wear either cleats or tennis shoes. Also, practices can be cold the first couple weeks; please ensure your daughter is properly dressed with layers.
*Since we will be using regulation balls, girls are required to wear protective eyewear during practice and scrimmages. Protective eyewear must be certified by the protective eyewear certification council (PECC) and must be in compliance with ASTM F803-30 Standards for Lacrosse. Go to www.uslacrosse.org for a list of manufacturers and models of eyewear meeting these specifications and for other information on protective eyewear.
LOCATION:
To Be Determined after we are assigned field space in February, but most likely Overlook Park:
1300 Overbrook Rd, Baltimore, MD 21239
