Seattle Starz Lacrosse
Dear MS Girls Lacrosse Players,
My name is Lyndsey Gillis and I am the new Women's Director of the Seattle Starz Lacrosse Club. I wanted to personally invite you to try out for the upcoming 2013 summer season held at Eastlake HS on Sunday, April 21st from 11:00-12:30pm!
Seattle Starz tournament teams are for players and families seeking additional opportunity to play lacrosse during the summer season and compete on a local, regional and national level. Our experience coaches will provide the tools to build strong fundamental skills, teach team strategy and develop players to the next level of play. Teams are formed through a selection process and require mandatory tryouts. For the summer of 2013, we are looking to form two to three middle school teams that will begin practicing and playing shortly after completion of the regular season.
The following information covers details regarding try-outs and tournament commitments.

TOURNAMENTS
Seattle Starz girls' middle school teams will be competing at national, regional and local tournaments where they will be exposed to the highest level of play. Upon completion of Starz tryouts, coaches will evaluate the the size and talent of each team, which will determine the final tournament schedule. The tournaments the girls' Starz MS teams have slots in for the 2013 summer season are the following:
Denver 3D Shootout (CO)
6/14-6/16
National Draw (NJ)
6/21-6/23
Pacific Lacrosse Festival (CA)
6/28-6/29
Cascade Cup (WA)
7/26-7/28
Both MS teams will attend the Pacific Lacrosse Festival and Cascade Cup, while the Elite team will also play at either the Denver 3D Shooutout or the National Draw
PRACTICES
Practices will typically be two times per week, one weekday evening and on Sunday. Practices will be held on the east side and begin in mid-May through July.
GIrls' and women's lacrosse is a growing sport nation wide and here in the PNW, it's an exciting time to be a part of it. It is my hope to develop and grow the girls' program at Seattle Startz into a premier organization that will gain local and national acclaim. Therefore, I hope to see you on the 21st! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions and visit our website, www.seattlestarzlax.com, for more information.
All my best,
Lyndsey Gillis
Seattle Starz Women's Director
