Girls Lacrosse in the North? Yes!

Two active girls teams participate in lacrosse in Northern Minnesota.  In Duluth, the Knighthawks girls lacrosse team has been active in Duluth for several years.  The Knighthawks include players ages 13 and up, from all area high schools and middle schools.  In 2010, the team finished fourth place in the Northcentral Schoolgirls Lacrosse Association with a 4-3 record.  Girls lacrosse is also being played in Grand Rapids.  The Grand Rapids team also participates in the Northcentral Schoolgirls Lacrosse Association.  Here's a video of the Grand Rapids Girls Lacrosse team in action.  Brainerd also has a new girls lacrosse team for 2011 that participates in the NSLA.  For more information about either team, go to the team contact page on the NSLA website.

High School Club Lacrosse Teams Paying for Field Time

Why should high school club lacrosse teams have to pay to use their own schools' fields?  Utah is doing something about it!

The Utah House of Representatives passed a bill that will allow High School Club teams to use high school fields for their practices and games for free.   Some lacrosse club teams were paying as much as $1,000 per game to use their own schools' fields for games.
