Overview

The Bandits 3rd/4th grade team is our developmental program. The girls will be instructed in the fundamentals of lacrosse in a fun and positive manner. Best effort, good attitude, and not being afraid to make mistakes will be focused upon. The Bandits general Team program is a competitive and developmental lacrosse experience that provides players with the tools to develop their fundamental skills as well as individual concepts necessary to take their game to the next level. If the enrollment numbers warrant, we will be creating an additional 3rd/4th grade team that will participate in 7 versus 7 league play on modified fields. A perfect way to build and accelerate the lacrosse learning curve.

Spring 2020 PICK-UP INFORMATION: Attention 3rd/4th grade parents. Pick-up will be at 5:45pm @ LF College Sports Center NOT at Hixon Field or by the Drop-off area (Northwest corner of Hockey Arena)~~We will be ending our spring practices 5-8 minutes early every practice, for this young group, so that our coaches can walk your daughters over to the Lake Forest Sports & Recreation Center for a safer pick up. We are asking that you pick up your daughters (3rd/4th only) at this location at 4:45pm. If you daughter has an older sibling who is practicing with the older teams, your daughter may stay and watch the end of that practice and be picked up with your older child at the entrance to our fields behind the Hockey Arena. Thank you for your understanding. We will have over 100 vehicles picking up and dropping off players at the college, so we wanted to keep the younger players safe by moving them to a different location.
