Welcome to new players and their families and welcome back returning players and families to Crown Point Lacrosse!

PLEASE NOTE, due to a 2013 IHSLA rule, you must live within the Crown Point School System and attend CPHS in order to join these teams.

TEAM PHILOSOPHY AND EXPECTATIONS

The mission of the Crown Point Lacrosse club shall be to provide student athletes and families with an opportunity to develop their lacrosse skills in a safe environment that promotes personal growth and excellence while fostering teamwork, leadership, scholarship, and respect for others and self. Also to develop players skill in a competitive environment that prepares them to compete and contribute to the best of their abilities during their years of playing for Crown Point Lacrosse Club and beyond.

The 14U and 12U players will be considered transitioning from developmental to competitive play. The participants will continue to build on essential basic skills while introducing the player to more advanced lacrosse skills. We wish to provide a positive experience by utilizing the learned skill sets during competitive playwhile nurturing cooperation and sportsmanship. 

Each player is expected to participate equally at practice and other lacrosse team events. We realize some players may not be at all practices while others will be at more practices. As such, we must remain fair and equitable to the player’s playtime in direct proportion to participation levels. Also, the participant’s skill level will be continually evaluated during practice and games. We will do our very best to create proportional playtime for each participant based on participation and skill evaluation.

We thank you for your understanding and cooperation with the goals and expectations of the 14U and 12U teams. We hope each participant has fun while taking their lacrosse game to the next level.

Middle School Girls Lacrosse is open to girls in grades 5 through 8 

Welcome to Crown Point Lacrosse Club. We are excited to be offering a girls middle school lacrosse team again this year.  One of our Crown Point Lacrosse Alumi, Brigid Flaherty will be coaching our middle school girls team this year and we cannot wait for it to get underway.

Indoor practices begin once weekly in February and move outdoors twice a week by the end of March. Games will begin in  April and should conclude in early June.

The game of girls lacrosse is played with differnet rules, equipment, and expectations than boys lacrosse. During youth lacrosse years, girls are permitted to play either boys or girls lacrosse, however once a female player reaches 9th grade they will only be eligible for our girls high school lacrosse team, so offering our middle school girls the opportunity to learn the sport of girls lacrosse and begin to lay down some foundations for them is the best way to prepare them for the high school girls team.
