We would like to welcome you to Manassas Battlefield Youth Lacrosse. It is an organization dedicated to growing the sport of lacrosse for the youth of Western Prince William County and the City of Manassas. We are a member organization and participate in the Northern Virginia Youth Lacrosse League (NVYLL) in the girls and boys divisions in the spring league. We accept players who reside within the High School boundaries for Battlefield, Brentsville, Osbourn, Osbourn Park, Patriot and Stonewall Jackson. Players who reside in other HS districts may be accepted by waiver.
We are pleased to announce that Manassas Battlefield Youth Lacrosse (MBYL) has formally adopted the name "Brigade Lacrosse". Although our non-profit entity will legally remain MBYL, we will represent and market ourselves as Brigade Lacrosse. Our name and logo were selected not only to honor the history of our Manassas-Battlefield region, but also to portray a strong, powerful and unified name for both the boys and girls programs.
BOYS - The age groups for Boys teams are U9, U11, U13 and U15. NEW FOR SPRING 2012 - The cutoff date for each age division will now be August 31 of the year prior to the Spring Season. U15 players for the Spring 2012 season must not be 15 years old before September 1, 2011. U13 players for the Spring 2012 season must not be 13 years old before September 1, 2011. And so on, for U11 and U9 as well.
GIRLS - Girls teams will be organized by grade level, K to 2nd, 3rd/4th, 5th/6th, and 7th/8th. 9th grade girls not playing for a HS team and who have not turned 15 prior to September 1, 2011 may also play on the 7th/8th grade team in 2012.
The NVYLL follows the US Lacrosse and USA High School Lacrosse Rules with a few exceptions.
We look forward to watching your daughters and sons experience the game of lacrosse, while learning the importance of sportsmanship and teamwork.
The league has experienced unprecedented growth. There are many opportunities available for you to assist, so that we can continue the ability to offer the sport of lacrosse to all girls and boys interested in playing. |
If you are interested in Coaching or Assistant Coaching, please contact either Pete Hraba or Gary Kugler.
We will also need Team Managers for each team.
You do not need to have any lacrosse experience to fill these roles. We can offer our help, while you learn the sport. If you have any questions at all regarding these opportunities, please contact us by e-mail or phone at any time. Contact information is available by clicking the Contacts tab on the left side of the home page.
