2010 Fall League Regristration is Open

South Florida's original and largest fall lacrosse program kicks off the season on September 19th, 2010!

The premier fall lacrosse program is the Lacrossewear Fall League which has provided local youth and High School players the opportunity to play competitive lacrosse on Sunday afternoons since the fall 2003.

Our program began in 2003 with one high school division which featured two teams; last year our program fielded 22 teams spanning 4 divisions from kindergarten to 12th grade. However we have maintained our commitment to our players - a commitment to receive instruction from the most experienced and award winning coaching staff in South Florida and the opportunity to see the maximum amount of dedicated playing time of any program in South Florida

Registration will be on a first-come first served basis with limited availability in the High School division - registration is available from July 10, 2010 by clicking here.
