Welcome...

The 2012 season has begun. . .

TRY
LAX
stands for Tantasqua Regional Youth Lacrosse. 
TRYLAX  is an instructional lacrosse league based in Brimfield, Massachusetts. 

TRYLAX
 membership is composed of students and parents from the five regional area towns of Brimfield, Brookfield, Holland, Sturbridge and Wales.  We currently are in the "West Central Region" of the MBYLL (Massachusetts Bay Youth Lacrosse League).  Our games are generally on Sundays, begin in April and end in June (Aprill 11th - June 6th).  We usually attend at least one Jamboree in June (which is loads of fun) and try to attend as many tournaments as possible throughout the season.  Practices are generally once or twice per week plus clinics throughout the year. 

As we are an instructional league, we do not have A and B teams.  We follow the MBYLL way and divide our teams as evenly as possible based on age, skill and experience.  Our goal is to grow and promote the game of lacrosse by teaching the fundamental skills, teamwork and sportsmanship necessary to play the game of lacrosse, in a safe and fun-filled environment. 

The TRYLAX program currently has teams ranging from U11 to U15 (grades 3-8).  The U11 teams are grades (3-4), the U13 teams are grades (5-6), the U15 teams are grades (7-8) and the junior/senior girls teams (our third year) grades (4-5) and grades (7-8).  Welcome girls!  Younger girls may also participate on the boys U11 teams.

ALL players must be a current member of US Lacrosse to participate in the program.  NO Exceptions!!  This is how we obtain our insurance.

History...

TRYLAX was founded in 2005 by Patti Bamberger.  Patti's children both had a passion for lacrosse and were forced to play in Worcester or Holden as there was nothing for them in the area.  With the help of Chris Widelo (
XCEL Lacrosse) and a little passion and determination from Patti, TRYLAX was born!  This eventually lead to a club team at Tantasqua Regional High School and then transitioned into the Varsity and JV lacrosse programs at the High School today.

TRYLAX started with one U15 team, which Patti and her husband Rich coached.  There was also one U13 team coached by Keith Turley.  

Today TRYLAX has over 160 players, Eight boys teams, two girls team (our third year), a staff of dedicated coaches (thanks guys!) and a great group of parents supporting us!

Parents...

Lacrosse is a contact sport.  At the U11 level there are no body checks of any kind allowed.  At the U13 and U15 levels there is some contact, but no "take-out checks" (meaning an intent to knock the player to the ground) are allowed.  Research has found both men’s and women’s lacrosse to be relatively safe compared to other commonly played team sports. Most injuries are minor strains, sprains and contusions. For more lacrosse safety information check out the US Lacrosse site.  If you're new to lacrosse and would like some more information about lacrosse, US Lacrosse has a nice Parent's Guide that is worth looking at.

TRYLAX is nothing without your support.  We have one of the lowest registration fees in the area.  Our registration fee is about half of what other programs charge.  We are trying to keep our fees the same but with the new rules this year and rising costs, this is very difficult.  That's where you come in.  We need volunteers to keep this program going.  Whether its people to man the snack shack on game days, food donations, coaches or fundraising...WE NEED YOU!  Please, if you can, get involved and help out where ever you can.

Up Coming Registration for the 2011 TRYLAX Season

Well, its that time of the year again, the 2011 lacrosse season is coming upon us and its registration time once again.  We are starting the registration process a little earlier this year so we don't have to turn away players.

This registration is for both BOYS and GIRLS!

TRYLAX registrations are going to be held on:

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010 from 6:30pm to 8:00pm

Where:

At the Tantasqua Regional High School Field House Foyer

(If you dont know where this is...When you enter the Tantasqua Regional High School main entrance, the first door you see on the side of the High School will be the entrance to the foyer.  We will be right in front of the gym.)

Registration for boys and girls will be $75.00.
New players will pay a new uniform fee of $55.00

(If you have your uniform from last year you dont to pay the uniform fee again.  This is only if you need a new uniform.)

Please remember that all players must be registered with US Lacrosse.  I believe that fee is $25.00 and can be done on line with USLacrosse.org

The registration form can be found on www.trylax.com click on registration.
You can print it out and bring it with you if you would like.  We will have forms as well.

So, I hope to see everyone.  Early registration is very helpful for our program.
Don't wait.

I am looking forward to another wonderful year, 7th, of lacrosse.
