Registration opens January 1, 2023!
Spring Program 2023
Our 2023 Spring Recreation Program is open to all boys and girls born between 1/1/2004 and 12/31/2019 (regardless if you live in Lawrence or not).
Friday Night Red Bull Training - On Friday nights, our NY Red Bull trainers will be training kids with drills and playing small sided games to evolve their skills. Location is TBD but will most likely take place at Village Park.
Younger than Middle School Aged Boys and Girls
Saturday Games - All games take place on Saturday mornings at the Armory fields off Eggerts Crossing Road or across the street behind Lawrence Intermediate School, beginning in early September through the middle of November. Our focus will be on skill development. Younger age groups will continue to use the "Play Train Play" methodology where they play a 3v3 game, then a training session and followed by another 3v3 game. For our older kids, we will have just games. We need parent/volunteer assistant coaches for ALL ages to help keep things rolling.
Middle School Aged Boys and Girls
We will be teaming up with Hopewell again this season for our middle school aged boys teams for both boys and girls. Games will be played on either Saturday's or Sunday's (still working out the details) this season either in Lawrence or at Hopewell (games in Hopewell are usually on the border of Lawrence).
High School Aged Boys and Girls
We are working to have an opportunity for those in high school to play as well. From a girls perspective, we will be creating a combined team with Hopewell to compete in ICL which plays games against other local towns. These games can be scheduled during the week at night or on the weekend. It all depends on the schedule which comes out the week before the season starts. I am looking at options for the boys as well. This is TBD for now and we can refund you if we do not have a program for the high school aged boys.
This year we will may limit the number of registrations depending on the volume of kids in each age group as well as the number of volunteers. It will be a first come, first serve basis. If you do go to the waitlist, do not worry, I will open up more spots, I am just looking to ensure we have balance amongst the age groups.
