* * * * * * Winter Conditioning for Middle School Boys* * * * * *

Winter Conditioning is on Tu/Th nights from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m. at Pope. Boys should wear tennis shoes, bring helmets, gloves and sticks. On SAT/SUN from 2:00 - 3:30 at Hightower. Boys should bring full gear and wear cleats.

November 17 - January 7

Boys in 6^th, 7^th, and 8th grades should sign up for our strongly suggested winter conditioning program. We understand that you may be playing winter sports and time may be an issue. But this conditioning will be lacrosse specific, including endurance, speed/agility, and most importantly, stick work designed to develop your dominant hand and off-hand in order to play at the next level. The ability to pass, catch, cradle, and shoot with both hands separates the top programs in middle school lacrosse. Jr. Greyhound Senior Select and Junior Select starters must develop these skills.

Tuesday and Thursday 7:00pm-8:30pm: Pope High School Track - Conditioning

Saturday and Sunday 2:00pm-3:30pm: Hightower Trail Middle School – Stick Drills

Registration Fee: $50.00

Jr. Greyhound Middle School Lacrosse Program

Beginning with the Spring 2010 season, the Georgia Middle School Lacrosse League (GMS) will officially become a part of Metro Atlanta Youth Lacrosse Association (MAYLA). MAYLA was developed by merging GMS and the “rec” league known as Georgia Youth Lacrosse Association (GYLA). MAYLA will be made up of the high school feeder programs, the municipal programs such as Roswell/Decatur/Alpharetta, and some YMCA programs who were involved with GMS/GYLA. What does this mean for our Jr. Greyhound middle school aged lacrosse players?

Senior Select Team

Comprised of 8th graders and possibly a few select 7th graders

Approximately 25 games during the season (January-May)

Games are played during the week and weekends

Majority of teams are in the metro area

Away tournaments requiring travel and additional expenses

Registration Fee: $400.00. All players will be required to purchase the Pope team helmet if they don’t already have one

Tryouts: January 9 and 10

Junior Select Team

Comprised of 7^th graders and possibly a few select 6^th graders

Approximately 25 games during the season (January-May)

U15 and U13 Rec Teams

Tryouts: U15 and U13 teams will not have tryouts. Teams will be filled as space is available.

Coordinators and coaches wish to express that being a part of the MAYLA Select teams is a very large commitment for both the player and family. We wanted to detail the information for each of you so you can make your spring season plans. We will continue to have rec ball teams for U15, U13, U11, and U9 and continue building all of the skills of our players. If you have specific questions related to MAYLA, please email jrgreyhoundlax@yahoo.com.
