Dear Parents and Players

The try-out and evaluation schedules for the 2010 season have been posted to the Medfield Youth Lacrosse website (www.medfieldyouthlacrosse.com). As previously announced, the Medfield Youth Lacrosse (MYL) Board of Directors voted to move the boys’ program to the Town Pride League effective with the 2010 season. Click here for the try-out and evaluation schedule or click on the "Documents" tab on the left.

As part of this change, 6^th-8^th grade players will placed on an A level or B level team (every player who registered for the season will be assigned a spot). If any player in 6^th -8^th grade does not wish to participate in the try-out process, he will be placed on the B team for that grade. At the 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th grade levels, the teams will be balanced.

All try-outs and evaluations will be held at ForeKicks in accordance with the schedules posted on the MYL website. For the 6^th-8^th grades, the try-outs will be organized and managed by the grade coordinator. In addition, in an effort to obtain objective feedback, we have a number of evaluators who do not have children in the program. These try-outs, along with the prior season evaluations, will form the basis for determining the teams for the 2010 season.

Players are expected to attend both try-out sessions for their grade. This will ensure that each player will have sufficient exposure to the evaluators to be fairly and objectively ranked within the player’s peer group. If a player cannot attend one or more sessions, the player should contact the Grade Coordinator to discuss.

Parents of 5^th grade players should note that the 5^th grade players will be evaluated as well this year in an effort to create fairly balanced teams and give the players exposure to the try-out process.

Additional information will be distributed as the try-out dates approach. In the meantime, please note the times on your calendar.
