 U12 Division - Lady Renegades


Ages 11 and 12.  At this level the game will become more competitive and teams will be formed by skill level.  Coaching reinforces lacrosse basics, strategy and may introduce structured plays and set positions.   At the highest flight (A), playing time will be determined by attendance, ability of the player and player effort.  At the AB and B level, it is expected that all players will have equal playing time over the course of the year.  No player should ever play an entire game unless the team doesn’t have substitutes or an injury prevents substitution.  This applies to all skill levels. 

Age Requirements: 2020 Spring Season


Participation in a U12 team is determined by the player's date of birth.  Any player born between September 1, 2007 and August 31, 2009 may play on a U12 team.  

 


US LACROSSE NUMBERS ARE REQUIRED TO PLAY!


In order to meet the requirements of South Jersey Youth Lacrosse League, all players are required to be current members of US Lacrosse, the national governing body of lacrosse.  A link to US Lacrosse can be found on the helpful links page or by clicking their logo at the bottom of the page.

Practice


Teams usually practice 2 nights per week, and most practices will run about 1 hour and 30 minutes.  The team's coaching staff will determine which days and how long the team will practice. 

Practice locations will be determined depending on field availability.

South Jersey Youth Lacrosse League Games


Normally scheduled SJYLAX games are held on Sundays, at a location in South Jersey.  The teams will play two games in a "Round Robin" format.  Occasionally games may be played in the evening during the week.  

The SJYLAX games begin late March and culminate with the year-end tournament, in late May/early June.  Games are not scheduled during holiday weekends (Easter and Memorial Day).  Games will be played on Mother's Day!

During the season, exhibition games may be scheduled with local teams.  

Exhibition game schedules are set by the Commissioners and Coaching Staff.

Tournaments


Each team will participate in the SJYLL Year-End Tournament.  

Additional tournaments may be added at the discretion of the Commissioners and Coaching Staff.  Any additional tournaments are not required for each team.  

Coaching Requirements


All coaches are required to complete the following:
  1. Background Check
  2. Rutgers Coaching Safety Certification
  3. Current Member of US Lacrosse, as a Coach

Head coaches are encouraged to be a US Lacrosse - Level 1 Certified Coach, as well as the listed requirements above.

The coaching staff participates in clinics and workshops throughout the year to improve their overall coaching ability as well as new and innovative methods to improve the skill level of our players.  We also strive to enhance the player experience by inviting lacrosse coaches from outside our program to work with our players on specific areas of the game (draws, goalie, defense, shooting).  

We encourage players who have graduated from our program, to return and assist the coaching staff as student coaches.
