Girls' Spring Programs

Mountain Lacrosse typically offers the following girls' programs during the spring season: 

• Girls 2-8th Grade Teams -- A full season of practices and competitive games in the Arapahoe Youth League. These grade-level teams are open to all skill levels, beginner to advanced. Come join your friends for a fun-filled and competitive lacrosse experience. 
• Girls K-1st Grade Teams -- A shorter "lighter" season of competitive games in the Arapahoe Youth League. The kindergarten and 1st grade teams use a small field with fewer players (4v4), allowing girls to learn the rules and experience fun competitive play against other teams. 
• Mountain Minis -- Our awesome in-house spring learn-to-play program for girls as young as preschool. Minis focus on fun while learning teamwork and skills. Minis will have several local practices in April/May; no travel/games. 

Program Objectives 

• Respect and enjoyment of the game 
• Develop an encouraging and supportive team environment 
• Build lacrosse skills and tactical knowledge 

Registration numbers will dictate final team composition. Spring MLAX Girls teams compete in the Arapahoe Youth League at the following levels: 

• kindergarten-1st grade: 4 v 4, modified field, modified goals and no goalies 
• 2nd-4th grade: 8 v 8, modified field 
• 5th-6th grade: 10 v 10, full field

• Games: Games are played on weekends and begin mid/late March. 

The girls' program is currently seeking coaches for all ages. Mountain Lacrosse will provide training through coaching clinics and resources like USA Lacrosse and the Positive Coaching Alliance.
