Registration for Spring 2025 opens Friday, December 20 and closes Friday, January 31, 2025.
Lacrosse is the game everyone wants to play!
Haven Youth Lacrosse fields travel teams at grades 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 for both boys and girls residing in Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Girls play in the Philadelphia Area Girls Lacrosse Association (PAGLA).
Practice will begin 1 day per week during the last week of February at either Hockey Dek in Springfield or MSI in Chichester. Twice weekly practices start on Wallingford-Swarthmore School District fields in April for grades 3/4 and 5/6. Practices are 60-90 minutes with games once or twice a week. Beginners in all divisions are most welcome!
Grades 7/8 will practice one time per week through the season (to accommodate middle school sports) with games on the weekends. HYL does not conflict with SHMS lacrosse – practices or games – and is very flexible about attendance.
PAGLA regular season games begin the weekend of March 29/30 and run through May 17/18. Some divisions will play a week night game or two throughout the season. No games on April 19/20.
HYL is committed to bringing lacrosse to everyone who wants to play. Lacrosse equipment can be expensive. We have some used equipment to distribute for use if needed. AND, we offer scholarships to reduce the price of registration.
COACHES: Teams are coached by parents, supported by HYL, and we are always in need of more volunteers – even if you never played the game. If you are interested in coaching, please reach out to us or check the box at registration. Even if you know nothing about lacrosse, there is a way you can help!
Any parents who help out on the field at practice or a game must have a USA Lacrosse Coaches Membership. Coaches are reimbursed for the cost of their membership.
USA LACROSSE MEMBERSHIP: As a condition of our participation in league play, all HYL players must have a valid USA Lacrosse membership that expires after June 1, 2025. USA Lacrosse has lots of resources for families who are new to the game.
