Saddle Brook Lacrosse: Welcome
Tuesday, January 10
This coming Tuesday, Jan 17th we will have the Sizings for the uniforms done. All Players are expected to come during their designated times to avoid kaos and confusion. It also will give you the opportunity to meet with some of the Leagues Coaches. We will size them for their Jersey and shorts. Also, they will receive the helmets. Please make sure to adhere to the schedule below. If there is an issue with the time, please email Manny Scarangella (sbjrlacrosse@hotmail.com) asap.
7th/ 8th grade - 7:00pm to 7:45pm
5th/6th grade - 7:30pm to 8:15pm
2nd/3rd/4th - 8:15pm to 9pm
The youngest one will come last since the majority of them are in Wrestling practice starting at 7pm to 8:15pm
This should go fairly quickly when you come. There will be NO NUMBER selection as the uniforms will be returned to the program this year (hence the lower cost of registration).

Tricia Tommas is heading up the "FAN GEAR" this year. We will be selling a number of different items for the families to purchase for their children and themselves if they wish. We are hoping to have the forms and possibly some samples at the Uniform sizings for you to see and order if you wish. New logo and new clothing styles to choose from this year.
As we enter our 6th Season, the lax folks are very excited of the upcoming season.
Plans are underway to make things better than ever. The time has come to start our registration process. We really need to know who is playing so we can make our schedules, get our uniforms, start planning our events (skiiing, Giant staidum Event, and Tournaments). COME AND BE A PART OF THIS!!!!!
You can registerby filling out the forms (in the HANDOUTS SECTION of this website) , scan them, and email them to me ASAP. You must fill out the code of conduct also. Fee is being decreased to $50 for in-town residents and $65 for our surrounding towns.
FULL PAYMENT IS DUE BY 1/15/2012
You can white mail them to us or email them to sbjrlacrosse@hotmail.com.
We look forward to seeing our returning players and meeting the new players as well.
Please get the forms in the "FORMS" section of the website. You must fill out the Registration and code of conduct forms.

2012 Konica Minolta Big City Classic Returns to the New Meadowlands Stadium with the following lineup:
- 3 College games
- Included will be Duke, Notre Dame, St Johns, North Carolina, Syracuse, and John Hopkins!!!!!!
Last year the Konica Minolta Big City Classic broke the attendance record for a regular season, lacrosse-only event with 25,742 fans at the state-of-the-art New Meadowlands Stadium.
We ALWAYS make this a big day for the players and no games will be scheduled for our boys on that day in order for them to be able to attend this event. We want everyone to come.
We have a tailgate at the event as well for all SB Players and their families. Lets keep the tradition alive. Plenty of time not to plan anything for that day. We will send a form to all players about this as final details are completed.

Game 1 Notre Dame vs. St. John’s 1pm
Game 2 Duke vs. Syracuse 4pm
Game 3 North Carolina vs. Johns Hopkins 6:30pm
2011 NJJLL League Rules Breakdown
The NJJLL follows all NFHS rules with the below listed exceptions
New for 2011
1) Teams may only have 4 coaches on the sideline at all times.
2) 4th grade and below:a. The team with possession must make one pass after crossing the midfield line:
i. If a team loses possession in its offense end and then regains possession no passes are need, this rule only applies if possession is gained in their defensive end and carried across mid field.
ii. The pass may originate from the defensive end but the player receiving the pass must be in their offensive half of the field.
b. No Long Poles, all sticks must be less than 42" long.
Existing NJJLL Rules:
? All games are 8 minute stop time quarters at all levels.? All games at all levels shall have a pre-game on field lineup.
? Home team keeps time, official shall only keep time if requested by home team.
? Games shall not start before the assigned time
? If games are scheduled for 6:00pm and 7:30pm the second game starts at 7:30, NOT when the first game finishes.
