Boys Travel Commitment Policy 

All players selected for A or B travel teams must agree to make lacrosse their PRIORITY for the entire course of the season. Given the number of highly qualified players we have at each grade level, it is not fair to have roster spots go to players who are less than 100% committed to lacrosse in the spring. We expect and encourage all of our athletes to play other sports during the rest of the year, as it increases athletic development and adds to players’ enthusiasm for all sports they play. But we require that during our relatively short season, you choose lacrosse over other event conflicts. If you are not prepared to make lacrosse your priority, we offer our house program for 5th and 6th graders or 7th/8th Senior Teams where players can develop their skills but where there is flexibility regarding attendance.

NOTE - IF YOU ARE TRYING OUT FOR TRAVEL BASEBALL, THEN YOU SHOULD NOT TRYOUT FOR TRAVEL LACROSSE (We would expect it to be the same vice versa).

5th - 8th grade A and B travel players are required to attend:

• All practices and games for their assigned team
• All house games and clinics (5/6th grade only)

Excused Absences* include: mandatory school events, religious observances 

Unexcused Absences include: play practice, dance practice, music practice, other sports, select team practices/games/tournaments (including lacrosse, soccer, field hockey, crew, swimming, etc). 

Punishments for Unexcused Absences:

• 1 missed practice or game = Sit ½ game
• 2 missed practice or game = Sit full game
• 3 missed practice or game = Loss of Roster Spot

*If a player anticipates missing for an excused absence then the player should make coaches aware as soon as possible.
