Many athletes on all four teams began their lacrosse journeys in the HRYL leagues, embodying teamwork, sportsmanship, and a deep love for the game. Watching them transition to the high school stage fills us with immense pride!
🎉 Free Entry for HRYL Players!
In a fantastic display of community spirit, ALL HRYL players—boys and girls alike—can enjoy these games free of charge by donning their HRYL jerseys. It’s a perfect opportunity for our younger players to witness high-level lacrosse, cheer for their former teammates, and perhaps learn some new strategies.
🥍 Bring Your Sticks!
We encourage young players to bring their lacrosse sticks. There’s more to these games than just spectating; engage, play catch, or hit the wall ball during breaks. It’s a fabulous way for them to stay active, connect with other lacrosse fans, and immerse in the lively atmosphere of the game.
🏆 Rivalry, Friendship, and Equality:
These matchups go beyond the game; they symbolize the strong bonds formed through lacrosse. Many players, from boys to girls teams, have played alongside each other in HRYL leagues, and now, as they face each other on the field, they bring a competitive yet friendly spirit to the matches. This embodies the essence of true sportsmanship—playing with passion while honoring the friendships and equality that elevate the sport.
📣 Calling All HRYL Families!
We invite all HRYL families to join us in supporting these exciting events. It’s a fantastic way to spend a family-friendly evening, inspire our young athletes, and celebrate the inclusive spirit of lacrosse that unites us.
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, March 20th, for an evening filled with top-tier lacrosse action. Let’s fill the stands with HRYL spirit, cheering for the incredible athletes across both boys’ and girls’ games. See you there!
