Welcome to the Mercer Island Elementary School program for players in grades 1-2. Our goal is to practice and develop play; improve hand-eye coordination, footwork, shooting skills; advance cardiovascular and lacrosse fitness in a supportive group setting for enhanced mental and physical health.
Practice Dates/Location: TBD based on field availability (working with city to confirm). 8U will have one practice per week (mix of Mondays + Tuesdays) from late March until early June. No games or practices over Memorial Day weekend or Spring Break.
Games: One game/scrimmage per weekend on Saturday or Sunday starting end of April until early June.
Coaches: Our players will be coached by a combination of MIGLAX adult coaches, parent volunteers (please email [email protected] if you are interested in coaching) and MIHS Varsity and JV players.
Equipment:
All players should wear cleats, dress for the weather (rain or shine) and bring the following to each session (there will be no sharing of equipment of any kind):
- Waterbottle
- Eye Gear
- Stick
- Mouthguard
- Mask
Please see our equipment info page for more information.
Refund Policy:
Refunds of MIGLAX registration fees will only be granted in the event of a change in the status of the player. Possible reasons for granting a refund include a change in the player’s health, a change of address, a change in family status, or similar consideration.
The amount of refunds granted will be determined as follows:
- On or prior to program start date, 100% of the total registration fee, less $15 to cover administration fees.
- After program start date, no refunds will be granted except for a change in the player’s health preventing that player from practicing or playing with the team or if the family is moving off Mercer Island. The amount of the refund will be pro-rated based on the length of the season remaining and will in no event exceed 50% of the registration fee, less $15 to cover administration fees.
