First Night of YMCA Youth Lacrosse Has Good Turnout

The Duluth YMCA Youth lacrosse league held its first practice last night and had an enthusiastic bunch of kids playing lacrosse, most for the first time. Coach Sam Litman, the Defensive Coordinator for the University of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs lacrosse team, led the practice with three of his Bulldog players to assist him.  The level of instruction for the youth in the Duluth YMCA league is top notch.

The Duluth YMCA Youth Lacrosse League, in its third season, is open to kids in grades 3 through 6. The league runs every Tuesday and Thursday night from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. until August 2.  The first two weeks will be instruction with games starting on the third week. All practices and  games are held on the soccer field above Lowell Elementary School.

Kids interested in playing can still sign up.  Contact the YMCA or register online on the YMCA REGISTRATION PAGE  It's not too late!  Come on out and join the fun of youth lacrosse!
