MYL Select Lacrosse Program (from the MYL website)

5th/6th & 7th/8th Grade town-based competitive youth lacrosse program.

• MYL Select Lacrosse Program offers MYL member towns an additional playing opportunity for their more experienced and committed 7th & 8th grade and 5th & 6th grade players.
• Select can enhance their love for the game and improve their lacrosse skills through competitive games with like-minded, talented players from surrounding towns.

The MYL Select Lacrosse Program is a natural extension and is fully integrated with the traditional MYL Town Program and is guided by the same mission and goals of the MYL as a whole. 

The MYL Select Lacrosse Program practice & game schedule does not conflict with the MYL Town Program weekly practice & Sunday game schedule and is open to ALL interested towns. 

Players choosing to play on an MYL Select Lacrosse team MUST also play on their town’s traditional MYL Town team as well.

Keys Points:

We established the MYL Select Lacrosse Program for the following reasons:

· Improve the overall program and positive experience for all involved in the MYL

· Enable more experienced middle school youth players to play together on a unified town team

· Simplify parent/player travel & carpool logistics w/ local practices/games

· Improve the competitive level of lacrosse, competition & capabilities in all players, teams & towns

· Stay in sync with, and complementary to, the mission & goals of the traditional MYL Town program

· A natural extension and logical progression of a growing MYL and NOT for the following reason….

We are NOT doing this for the sometimes-mentioned wrong reasons; to be exclusionary, Select to a fault, Elite Team fever, A-B-C rankings, or the better-than-you mentality.
