Hello Lady Titan LAX Family,

I hope everyone is planning on having an awesome Spring Break this week. I just wanted to get everyone up to speed as our games start on the week of 27 MARCH.

- No practices this week.
- We were planning on having a scrimmage with Coach Jordan and the LSHS team sometime this week, but it looks like Mother Nature is going to get in the way. If we have a good day, we may give it a try. We are looking at Wed, Thurs or Fri. I will send a text out if we decide we want to give it a try.
- Games start the week of 27 March. The game calendar on Teampages (click the “Calendar” link) is the most up to date schedule at any given moment. You can also log into www.kcmgla.com and look up our schedule there as well.
- Our first game is no longer Monday 27 March…that Varsity-only game vs Pembroke has been moved to 10 APRIL. That makes our first game on Friday 31 March vs Park (at Park). The JV game is scheduled for 4:45pm and the Varsity is scheduled for 6:00pm. This is going to make it tough logistically as we need to be there by 4pm to start stretching and warming up. That means we’ll have to leave LSW’s parking lot at 3:00pm to get to Lakeview Middle School in time. The address is:
6720 NW 64th St, Kansas City, MO 64151
I recommend everyone bring chairs to sit on as the satellite photo does not show any bleachers (or a small set). Any parent willing to drive please meet me at LSW by 2:50pm so we can get all 38 girls up to the Park area in time.
- As for out of town play dates, we are committed to two. Here are the details:
- The JV team will travel to Columbia, MO on 8 APRIL to play. We plan this as a day-trip, so no hotel stay is needed (unless you want to). All games will be played at Cosmo Park. The address is:
1615 Business Loop 70 W, Columbia, MO 65202 We will play on Field FB-5 on the South-Eastern part of the park. We will also plan on going to Shakespear’s Pizza (the one closest to Cosmo Park at
3304 W Broadway Business Park Ct, Columbia, MO 65203) after our last game so we can get some grub before heading back home.
- The Varsity team is committed to play in St. Louis on 22 APRIL. This will be a round-robin play date where 3 KC area teams will play 3 STL area teams. They are expecting on playing all 9 games (we play 3 of them) throughout the day on Saturday…it will be a busy date. Because we will start in the morning, we will need to stay in a hotel the night before. Mr. Rasdall has reserved us a block of rooms…here are the details.

We will need to stay the night on Friday 21 APRIL
Guests in our group will need to directly call Marriott Reservations at 1 (800) 321-2211 or (314) 997-1200 on or before Friday, March 31, 2017, (the “Cutoff Date”) to make their sleeping room reservations. Please advise guests to identify themselves as part of the Lee’s Summit Lacrosse 17U Room Block group staying at the Courtyard St. Louis Westport Plaza, located at 11888 Westline Industrial Dr, St. Louis, MO 63146.

Continental Breakfast will be provided to the guests of Lee’s Summit Lacrosse 17U Room Block in an alternative space or a meeting room (pending availability). Room rate is $84.

Reservations must be confirmed with a card; however, Mr Rasdall will pay for the rooms on a single district card utilizing the tax exempt. Payment for rooms will then be made by cash or check to “LSW LAX” & given to Dean Rasdall. For those who wish to use their personal payment, for points or miles, you may still do that but lose the 15+% tax exempt.

That’s it for now…If you have any questions, you can call or text me at 816-977-5707. Have a wonderful Spring Break! We will practice Monday 27 March at 5pm!
