We will be running free clinics for girls from Mid-May to Mid-June 2021 for purposes of giving more girls of that age the chance to try and love the sport.  More details to follow.  In the mean time feel free to contact one of our board members for more info.

Registration is currently closed, but we may accept late registrations to top off our rosters, especially on the Girls side, so please ask our Boys and Girls Coordinators

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE:  Many players each year receive discounted or free registration, uniforms, etc through the On The Team program.  Due to Covid, they are running on limited funds this year, but they do have some money to distibute.  Please contact Wallingford Youth and Social Services if you need assistance at 203-294-2175.  This program has been very generous and easy to navigate. If you don't get what you need through them this year, contact Rosa, our league president or one of our board members, and we will make sure you get what you need to participate.  We don't want anyone to stay home because funds are too tight to afford to play with us!

Wallingford Youth Lacrosse

  Welcome back to school Wallingford Youth Lacrosse. As you and your lacrosse players are about to settle in to the routine of school and the fall, the WYL league is hard at work getting the 2017 season planned and ready for you all to enjoy next spring. (We even have some cool stuff happening this fall too!)

  Part of the process of getting everyone ready for next year’s season is making sure that you are all aware of the causes, signs, dangers of concussions, and what to do when you see the symptoms. Concussions are a part of every sport, especially lacrosse, and the WYL league takes them serious as should you.

  Please take a moment to follow the attached links that provide crucial information that you need to know about concussions and your children.

  Please note that this year and going forward, part of our registration process will include a section where you will be required to confirm that the league has provided you with this educational information.  

  Concussions are a SERIOUS part, of a great sport. Educate yourself and your player.

Via the NY Times:

"The young brain is especially susceptible to concussion, and sports-related concussions account for more than half of all emergency room visits by children aged 8 through 13, according to the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. A child who suffers a concussion is one and a half times more likely to experience another, and those who have had two concussions have a threefold greater risk of the same injury happening again."
