WHO: Players in the following graduating classes: 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031.
We want players that are fully committed to becoming better lacrosse players. We intend to have a select varsity level squad for committed players that want to play in college. At the younger levels, we want players that have a strong passion to excel at the highest levels.
WHAT: The teams will play in 4 or 5 tournaments during the summer. Players will also be expected to attend practices (1-2 per week) throughout the summer season. Last season we attended summer tournaments in Auburn, West Genesee, Tully, and Sackett's Harbor and expect to have a similar schedule next summer.
VARSITY LEVEL: Our varsity team will attend one national level tournament next season that will require an overnight stay. This will increase the cost of the season for the varsity team by around $100. These tournaments are very expensive to attend. We are doing this for two reasons. This will provide the players with more college exposure. The second reason is that there are not enough tournaments providing varsity brackets in upstate NY anymore for us to get 4 tournaments for the girls.
COACHES: We have one of the best coaching staffs around. We never have parents coach and most of our coaches have varsity level coaching experience. Last season, our staff included: Donovan Lopez (Pittsford Varsity), Andy Lee (Waterloo Varsity), Kristen Malecki (Pittsford Asst Coach), Corey Foster (Mynderse Varsity), Rachel Olson (Mynderse JV Coach), Molly Gray (Former Niagara player & varsity head coach), Jordan Knapp (former Nazareth College player), Emma Knapp (former Hartwick player), Shae McConnell (SUNY Oswego player) and Meghan Doyle (New Hampshire player).
PRACTICES: Our expectation is that all players are at practice at least 80% of the time. If this is a commitment that you can not make you should reconsider trying out for the club.
COST: The final cost will be determined by the number of players that are involved. The approximate cost will be between $400 and $500 dollars for the summer season.
US LACROSSE: You must be a member of US Lacrosse to tryout and be a member of our organization. Membership costs $35 per year and has many benefits including a subscription to Lacrosse Magazine and Accident Insurance. You can register at www.uslacrosse.org.
