Hello Neighbour! New Residency Rules for House League
Children participating in house league lacrosse are able to register for any lacrosse centre of their choice, regardless of their residency. Therefore, we no longer require releases from neighbouring lacrosse centres if you are registering for house league.
*Players registered for Rep or Select teams are still required to request a player release from their home centre if they are not residing within the Orangeville bounds for lacrosse.
Friend Requests
We will try our best to accommodate ‘friend requests’, however we may be unable to fulfill every request, as we also strive to create balanced and fair teams for play. Players will be limited to only one ‘friend request’ and that request must be reciprocated in order to be accepted.
Each age group will be on the floor at the same time, in the same arena to facilitate families assisting one another with transportation.
Please forward any ‘friend requests’ to [email protected]
