Want to try lacrosse?
Valley Thunder Lacrosse is hosting two “try-its” March 26 and 27, led by Lacrosse Nova Scotia’s technical director K.J. MacNeil. This is your opportunity to pick up a stick and try Canada’s national summer sport, just in time for the start of Valley Thunder’s 10th season.
Valley Thunder Lacrosse offers team programming for all athletes, from ages five (Mini-Tykes) to 17 (Intermediate), along with the opportunity to coach or referee the sport. If you have basic hockey gear, you’re halfway to being a lacrosse player; ringette players have some of the best transitional skills for lacrosse; soccer players: you know you can run the rink floor for an hour.
The box lacrosse season runs April, May and June in Nova Scotia; Valley Thunder teams play out of both the Kingston and Berwick rinks, with regular league games with Digby, scheduling with other leagues and host their own Apple Cup June 1 to 3 with teams coming from across the province.
The try-it sessions are free for any interested athlete, coach or referees – of any experience. Bring running shoes and active wear, a hockey helmet and gloves; and a water bottle. Lacrosse NS will look after the rest: sticks, balls and an evening’s worth of basic skills and drills. There is a waiver: come prepared to complete the form at the events, or download your own from valleylacrosse.ca
Sessions are Monday, March 26, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Central Kings Rural High School in Cambridge; and Tuesday, March 27, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Pine Ridge Middle School in Kingston. Come to one – or both!
