Summer Pickup Lacrosse

PROGRAM DETAILS

Henry Youth Lacrosse (HYL) is hosting weekly pickup games on Mondays in June + July from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Union Grove High School Stadium. Games will be short field (sideline-to-sideline) 7v7 format for the following groups:

  • Middle School Boys (6th-8th)
  • High School Boys (9th-12th)
  • Post-High School/Adult Men (Ages 18+)

We may combine players into 1, 2 or 3 groups depending on the turnout week-to-week. These are friendly, community “pickup games.” All our welcome, but games are intended for Henry County locals OR their friends (or former HYL/HLC players, coaches, parents, etc.).

We will update everyone about pickup (including any weather related issues) via REMIND this year. If you would like to be notified about games, schedule changes, etc., please sign up using class code @7V7LAX. You can also text @7v7lax to 81010 to join the group.

Games will be on Monday nights from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. If we need to cancel or reschedule for any weeks, we will send an update via REMIND. This is a free service/app. If you have any questions or need additional information, please text Coach Jeremy at 404.641.9023.

Do you need additional info? Have questions? Please review our Summer Pickup Lacrosse FAQs below first to see if we’ve already answered your question. If not, please reach out via 404.641.9023 or jeremy@henryyouthlax.org. Thank you!

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?

HYL Summer Pickup Lacrosse is fully-equipped. Please bring all your gear with you! You should also bring:

  • Equipment: Summer Pickup is fully-equipped. Bring full equipment with you (including mouthguard and protective cup). If you do not have your own equipment (with the exception of mouthguard/cup), we may have equipment you can borrow. Again, please text Coach Jeremy.
  • WATER: It’s summer. It’s going to be hot. You need to stay hydrated. We will do our best to fill water jugs when we can, but assume we won’t have water at the field.
  • A Reversible Pinnie: bring a pinnie with an obvious dark and light side (preferably white on one side). If you don’t have a pinnie, reach out to teammates or coaches (don’t show up without one).

DO I NEED TO SIGN-UP?

NO…but you do need to sign HYL’s Waiver and Release form (we will have copies at the field). Please reply to the weekly REMIND if you plan to play (especially goalies)…it helps us keep things organized.

DOES IT COST MONEY?

No, we are not charging for Summer 7s. But…balls do cost money. If you are able to make a donation (even if it’s just 5 bucks), every little bit helps. HYL is a Non-Profit. Here are some easy ways you can donate:

Donations are optional and not required for participation. Thank you for helping to support the youth lacrosse program!

WHAT ABOUT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PLAYERS AND/OR GIRLS?

We have the MOST interest for older boy’s and adult men’s pickup games at this time. That said, we have included other groups in the sign-up form to gauge interest. If there is enough interest – and we have an adult/coach willing to help coordinate – we will consider adding additional groups for Summer Pickup. Please complete the form to ensure you are included in the count.

WHAT ARE THE RULES?

We will do 4 quarters, which may vary based on heat/turnout/etc. The rules are lose…basically, be nice to each other and don’t try to hurt anyone (good sportsmanship).

DO YOU NEED VOLUNTEERS?

If you’re not playing, but would like to help, we could use volunteers to help keep score and assist with running games each week. If you are willing/able to help, please text 404.641.9023.
