Attention: 2012 Uniform  Policy and Distribution Schedule

Just as last year, South Carroll Youth Lacrosse will require a $100 deposit at the time that team uniforms are distributed.

A uniform distribution date has been set and at that time jerseys and shorts will be distributed to each player.  Helmets, arm pads, and gloves will be distributed to all tyker level boys. In exchange for the uniform and equipment, we will require a deposit  for $100. The check/deposit will not be cashed, but instead be held and returned to the participant in exchange for their shorts and jersey at a scheduled uniform return day.  Anyone not able to attend on the return day must make arrangements with the program to make the exchange no later then 30 days past the originally scheduled return day.  On the 31^st day if uniforms have not been returned or if no arrangements for return have occurred, the check/deposit  for $100 will be cashed.

The above policy also applies for any borrowed equipment. There is not an additional deposit for borrowing Tyker level equipment .  A tyker level players deposit will pertain to both uniform and equipment.

Uniform Distribution is scheduled for Saturday March 10^th in the South Carroll High School Cafeteria as follows:

1:00pm-1:30pm                                Junior Boys and Girls

1:30pm-2:00pm                                Midget Boys and Girls

2:00pm-2:30pm                                Lightning Boys and Girls

2:30pm-3:00pm                                Tyker Boys and Girls ( tyker boys equipment will also be distributed)

IMPORTANT: Equipment Notice for all South Carroll Youth Lacrosse Participants

Per previous notices, South Carroll Youth Lacrosse no longer provides equipment for evaluations or for the regular season for Lightning, Midget and Junior level age groups. (We will still provide helmets, gloves and arm pads to the Tyker level and gloves to the pocket level.)

 It is the responsibility of the player to acquire their equipment.  (Required equipment for boys is: stick, helmet, gloves, arm pads, shoulder pads, athletic cup, and mouth guard.) (Required equipment for girls is goggles, mouth guard and stick.)

South Carroll Youth Lacrosse Team Formation Policy

Pertaining to Lightning, Midget and Junior age levels:

-Teams are formulated based on evaluation results. Coaches do not pick their team. Teams are put together based on evaluation results and coaches are provided their team by the SCYL board. In the event that teams reach full capacity, those participants that were registered for evaluations will be given preference over those not registered for evaluations.

-All players must register, evaluate, and play at their respective age grouping according to MYLA standards, unless an exception is made by the board. All exceptions are made by the board, not individual coaches.

-After player evaluations end, any age group still needing extra players will first be filled through open registration of players from the appropriate age group.

-If players are needed to move up to an older age group to fill a team (based on the discretion of the board), players will be offered that opportunity based on the order of their evaluation scores.

- Any player not attending evaluations must have an exception from the board in order to be given consideration to play at a higher team level or higher age group. Those players that were not registered for evaluations or did not participate in evaluations and did not have an exception from the board will receive an evaluation score placing them below all participants that attended evaluations.
