Good Morning Lady Titan Lacrosse Family,

3 Weeks and Counting!!! That’s how long until the Spring 2020 season officially starts, and we move to outdoor practices. We are close to getting our schedule (we had to make a couple of changes). As soon as I get the final schedule, I’ll share it with all of you. As we get closer to the start of the season, I just want to make sure that we are taking care of the housekeep items so we can just worry about playing lacrosse when 2 MARCH rolls around. Here’s the list:

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT – IF YOU HAVE NOT COMPLETED YOUR SPORTS PHYSICAL AND UPLOADED IT INTO THE PRIVT WEBSITE, PLEASE DO SO ASAP. If you have already uploaded a physical form into the PRIVT website for another sport (i.e. volleyball), please log back in and choose “Girl’s Club Lacrosse” as a Joined Team so you show up on our team’ report.

SUNDAY 16 FEB: Week 7 of 8 for our indoor sessions.

MONDAY 24 FEB: LSW LAX Fundraiser at Martin City Pizza and Taproom (354 SW Blue Pkwy, Lee’s Summit, MO 64063). Any purchases after 4pm will have 10% go to the LSW LAX Club. They are also reserving an area just for us…makes plans to go eat some pizza and support our club! And spread the word to your friends, family, neighbors, etc…Facebook is usually a great way to get that word out.

SATURDAY 29 FEB: Team Lock-in at LSW’s Aux Gym. This event will be for the team to spend the night at LSW, have fun, play games and activities and get to know each other. We are still working out the details, but we will most likely go from 8pm until 9am the next morning. Any parents interested in helping out (crowd control, coordinating food, drinks, etc…) please reach out to me at 816-977-5707. I am still in need of some moms to help as only the male coaches can attend (Coach Casie has a prior commitment).
I know there are a lot of first-year parents who have yet to fully experience a season with us, so I wanted to share some basic information to help all of you with what’s coming up.

Starting on 2 MARCH, the lacrosse season will “officially” start, and we will move to full practices at LSW. Our designated practice field is directly behind the tennis courts at LSW unless we are forced to go indoors due to inclement weather, then we will practice at the LSW AUX gym. Practices will ALWAYS be from 5pm-7pm on Monday – Thursday (No Friday practices). The only change will be if we run out of daylight while outdoors until daylight savings time has us move our clocks forward on 8 MARCH. Also, please make sure you talk to your daughters about dressing in layers when we start practicing outdoors.

MONDAY 2 March – THURSDAY 5 March: Varsity tryouts. Varsity Roster will be announced at the end of practice on 5 March.

THURSDAY 5 March at 7pm – Mandatory Parent Meeting: I have secured Mrs. Boulden’s room (Rm. 2178) at LSW. I would like for parents to make every effort to attend this meeting. This will be where you can meet the coaching staff, hear our expectations for the team, expectations for parents, hear my plea for a few volunteers, you can sign up to host a team feeding, etc. Plus, you can meet your fellow lax parents. If there’s enough interest, I’ll be happy to host a quick 30 min Lacrosse 101 course to those who don’t know the game.

That’s it for now…have a wonderful week!
Go Titans!
Coach Jay
