Club ball literally consumes every weekend in the summer. If you have the time and disposable income, go nuts. I knew 6th graders that paid for "showcases"!? But from my own personal opnion with multiple boys, club lacrosse is not a good idea before 6th grade. 5th grade and under is solely a money grab. And guess what? Everyone can throw and catch in High School and Junior's mad run to the cage bull dodge wont work by 6th grade. He has to learn work within a team offense. And if he isnt 6 foot by 2022 think about trying baseball.


Not sure which club goes all summer. Our team is done by mid July.
