SYLA offers a variety of programs designed to develop our lacrosse players, foster teamwork and create a genuine love of the game. While our primary focus is our summer field season, we provide other opportunities for players to get a stick in their hand.

• Summer Field Lacrosse: The cornerstone of our association, featuring a co-ed 6u program and boys and girls teams that participate in league play against other associations. As lacrosse is an outdoor sport the start of our season is weather dependent, but we generally get started outdoors in early April. Registration for our summer field season opens late December and closes in mid-March.

• Fall Lacrosse: Annually we offer registration for a fall tournament depending upon interest, for 2026 we are expanding this offering to include a short fall season with 5 games. Learn more about Fall Lacrosse and Great Pumpkin Shootout visit our registration page under the programs tab.

• Spring Lacrosse: Our association uses the spring time as a preseason warm up for our summer season. To get players back into the game we participate in a local co-ed box lacrosse league.
