Boys Registration
2025 Boys Spring/Summer Registration
Based on feedback from last years Parent Survey, we will run Spring and Summer as one cohesive season. All athletes will play for the same team for the entire season. Teams will be assigned after Evaluations which are scheduled at the MAC Lacrosse Center on March 23, and March 30, 2025. We understand you may have conflicts with other sports during the spring months, our ask is to do the best in attendance.
All teams will be playing in the GNLL Spring Season and the YLM Summer Season. We are including the GNLL Spring Season for our 14U level as well, however if we do not have enough eligible non High-School players, there is a chance we will not offer the GNLL Spring Games as part of the season. In this event, you will be refunded $100.00 in March.

What happens if an Athlete does not participate in evaluations?
- It is strongly encouraged that athletes participate in at least one or both days of evaluations.
- If a player misses an evaluation day due to family obligations or other excused absence (sickness / family trip planned before evaluations were announced) and does not let the WULAX President know ahead of time and does not make arrangements for a different day to be evaluated, the player will be placed on a B team.
- Players that are unable to attend evaluations and have prior approval for an excused absence will be evaluated based on past coach’s recommendations.
What are the volunteer (DIBS) requirements for families?
- The Black & Blue Lacrosse Tournament is critical to the program and is the only fund-raising event of the season. Each family who registers a child to play lacrosse will be scheduled for four (4) hours of time to work at the Woodbury Black and Blue Lacrosse Tournament June 27-29, 2024. Families with two or more children registered will be asked to do six (6) hours.
- You may choose to opt out of these volunteer duties by paying an additional $300 with your registration. The fee will be used to help find and pay for hiring outside workers in your place.
- If you do not opt-out during registration but then fail to work at the tournament, you will be billed for the $300 volunteer fee and your child will be removed from the program until the volunteer fee is paid.
