PURPOSE
Our purpose is to grow the sport and grow the kids. We strive to be recognized as one of the top programs in the Mid-Penn Youth Lacrosse Association (MPYLA) and make our future high school athletes more competitive.
We will grow the sport by making it affordable and inclusive for new players, and more importantly, by creating an environment where our current players keep coming back. We will focus our recruiting efforts on multi-sport athletes and extending our reach into the CD East schools.
We will grow the kids by teaching and following our core values below.
CORE VALUES
Our core values are the following:
Winning is more than a final score. If we follow our core values, we believe our student athletes will be winners on and off the field.
Last, we feel all players should get meaningful playing time in games - minimum 1 quarter of the game. If we are playing a good team, the A players will get more playing time. If we are playing a not-so-good team, the B players should get more playing time. Over the course of a season, it should balance out assuming everything else is equal.
Our goal is to grow the sport! With that in mind...
Experience lacrosse risk-free!
