The Little Sticks Program is a developmental league with the primary purpose of introducing children to the sport of lacrosse. The emphasis will be on stick skills, team work, sportsmanship and having fun. All boys and girls in first thru third grades are welcome to participate. We have established a set of Rules and Waivers (with input from US Lacrosse and in coordination with North Texas Youth Lacrosse League) for this program. Since this is a pilot program, the format for practices and games will be flexible within this framework to ensure everyone receives equal instruction and equal playing time. We plan to meet twice a week; practice/ scrimmage on weekdays and games on the weekend. The schedule is established once we determine the number of players/ teams. 

A secondary goal is to involve the parents by teaching them the game as we teach the players. Most of our parents have limited, if any, knowledge of this sport. We want overwhelming parent participation and this is a great opportunity to draw families into the KYL program. The coaches will be US Lacrosse Level I certified.

The Little Sticks program is scheduled to resume in the Winter 2010.
