Edmond Parks & Recreation is pleased to offer a 1st and 2nd grade co-ed program for the spring 2009 lacrosse season. This developmental non-contact program will consist of two play days to teach basic skills. Following that there will be six games (7player v 7player) on a shortened field. Games will follow modified girls rules—no contact—no goalie.

Practices will be held once a week for 30 minutes with game immediately following. Games will consist of 15 minute running-time halves and coaches are encouraged to go on the field during play. Since this is a new program, the emphasis is on learning lacrosse and having fun.
Our goal is to promote youth lacrosse in an environment that emphasizes fun while developing skills, teamwork, good sportsmanship, and integrity.

Edmond LAX in LibertyFest 2008

2008-07-08T14:19:00.004-05:00

Thank you to everyone who participated in LibertyFest on the Fourth of July! We had a great turnout, and I heard many of the parade spectators commenting on how enthusiastic our group was.

Most of the kids walked the parade route and had fun "high-fiving" the spectators. Several times throughout the parade they would put all theirs sticks in and on the count of three yell, "EDMOND LACROSSE"! It was quite an attention-getter.

Thanks again for coming out and we hope to see you in next year's parade!

Edmond Lacrosse in LibertyFest '08

Edmond Lacrosse Parents and Players:

We hope you had a fun and exciting 2008 spring season, and are looking forward to returning next year!

We wanted to let you know about a special event coming up, and hope that you will make plans to participate.

This year Edmond Parks and Recreation and the Edmond Lacrosse Club will be sponsoring a float in the Fourth of July parade (LibertyFest) in downtown Edmond!

We need players to ride and/or walk along. You will wear your team jersey (boys) and uniform (girls) and carry your stick.

Of course, the parade is Friday, July 4th and players would need to be at the designated area no later than 8:00 a.m. that morning. More details, such as where to come, where to pick-up when parade is over, etc... will follow later.

If your child is interested in participating, please contact Robin Gayle below.

Hope you're having a great summer, and we'd love to see you on the fourth!

Everyone returned exhausted, but ready to put the new skills they learned to use on the fields in Edmond!
