Girls Youth Spring Lacrosse

Minnetonka Lacrosse is at the forefront of developing the girls youth players. We are proud to be part of the fastest-growing youth sport in America and intend to foster a love for the sport of lacrosse through fun drills and competitive play. All skill levels are accepted, beginners are encouraged!

We will have a parent meeting to discuss the season(s) February 18, 2020 at 7:00 PM - MHS Port *Media Center*

SPRING Season 10U, 12U, 14U

There are two seasons for girls  10U, 12U & 14U lacrosse:
 
1. Spring (March-end to May) Tournament May 29th - 31st. (This is the season that you are registering for now.)

Spring registration is now closed.

2. Summer (June-end to July) Tournament July 31-August 2nd.

Players can sign up for one or both seasons.  

We encourage participation in both seasons. 

New this year - option to sign up for both Spring and Summers seasons now, and get a $50 discount off the combined cost of both seasons.  Details and payment plans on the Spring registration page.

 

League

The MSSLAX competitive league we play in encompasses all girls' lax teams in the twin cities and surrounding area (e.g. Edina, Stillwater, Eden Prairie, Lakeville. etc.).

Teams

Minnetonka is planning on fielding one to two teams at each age level (10U, 12U and 14U). Once the first team threshold is met, a team will be added if registration numbers permit. Final team count will depend on participation, so sign up early to ensure your spot on the team.
 

Eligibility

Minnetonka serves the Minnetonka School District as stated in its mission. For this reason we give priority for roster spots to players who reside, or open-enroll, in the Minnetonka School District. We welcome players from outside the Minnetonka School District if space allows at the close of registration. Those players should email girlsyouthdir@mtkalax.org to be added to a "first come, first served" wait list.

 

Schedule

Plan on 2-4 outdoor practices a week, weekday evenings and weekends weather permitting.

At the beginning of the season there will be indoor dome practices to account for weather conditions.

Games vary week to week and can be on any day of the week and begin in April for Spring season.  All players are expected to attend both practices and games.

 

2020 Costs

Spring registration fees:

• 10U $275 per player
• 12U $325 per player
• 14U $325 per player

 

Uniform

Before you register, please make sure your daughter tries on her old uniform to see if it still fits.  A few girls last year found out after registration that they needed a bigger uniform.

If this is the first time that your child has played lacrosse for Minnetonka, you will need to purchase a uniform.  If your child has played for Minnetonka already and has a uniform/pinnie there is no need to buy a new uniform unless you need larger sizes. If your child only needs a new Jersey or Pantskirt or Pinnie then the a la carte prices are:

• $85 for full uniform
• $45 for the Jersey only
• $40 for the Pantskirt only
• $30 for the Pinnie only

Mandatory US Lacrosse Membership

There is also an additional cost of $30 for the mandatory US Lacrosse membership (provides insurance coverage).
