Boys Lacrosse

Knox News shape

KYS boys' lacrosse is open to children ages 5-12. Players will be divided into age groups (8U, 10U, 12U). We welcome and encourage new players, even those who will be seeing and holding a lacrosse stick for the first time. Our coaches especially love coaching new players and giving them the chance to love and excel at the “Fastest Sport on Two Feet”.

Please contact Knox Youth Sports for any questions regarding sign-ups.
