The Pre-K & Kindergarten Program is an opportunity for players to be introduced to the game of lacrosse in a fun and supportive environment.

Program Overview

Our Pre-K and Kindergarten program is designed to introduce young players to the fundamentals of lacrosse in a fun and supportive environment. This program focuses on essential skills such as cradling, scooping, catching, and throwing while fostering a love for the game—without the pressure of competition or travel.

The program is open to both boys and girls in Pre-K and Kindergarten and takes place locally to ensure skill development remains the focus. Each session runs on Sunday mornings at Pine Street Field (158 Pine St, Manchester, MA). Exact time TBD based on coach availability.
