Thank you for an amazing 2021 House League Season!

 

We know how difficult the past year has been on so many of you.  Our goal was to get the kids and our volunteer coaches on the field safely.  Our registration numbers confirmed how important it was to get our kids back out on the field laughing, learning, and growing.  Thank you for entrusting us with your children over the past 10 weeks!

 

We are so grateful for the over 100 volunteer coaches who dedicated their time to the kids and the growth of lacrosse.  Shawn Cavanaugh, Brady Miller, Eugene Miller, & Brad Neuberth, our amazing master coaches, worked diligently to create a skills-based progression program that allowed kids to develop at their pace.   

 

Once restrictions started to ease, we were able to get each and every local high school program to a Friday Night Clinic:  Greenwich High School, Greenwich Academy, Sacred Heart, Brunswick, and Greenwich Country Day.  Our young players will some day suit up for these schools and it makes us very proud to watch our alumni give back and mentor our youngest players.

On behalf of the GYL Board of Directors, thank you for a fantastic season.  Thank you to the kids for “bringing it” every week.  And thank you again to all of our coaches who make this program truly special.

 

All the best,
