Divisions:

Beginning with the 2009 season, Northern California Junior Lacrosse Association adopted new divisions consistent with the national level and recognized by US Lacrosse and the Youth Council.
All youth divisions are based on age of the player, not their grade.

All youth divisions are based on age of the player using December 31, 2009 as the cut off:

Girls:
U9 Bantam - ages 7 or 8 at 12/31/2009
U11 Lightning - ages 9 or 10 at 12/31/2009
U13 Jr. - ages 11 or 12 at 12/31/2009

Volunteering:

The Coyotes is an all volunteer organization. Family participation is required. Part of the registration process will require choosing a volunteer opportunity. A list of opportunities can be found here.

Practices and Games:

Practices start the end of January. Games start in March and run through May.
We practice on several fields in the Burlingame area. Exact practice schedules and field locations are to be determined. For a general guideline, the bantam divisions will practice 2x a week until games start and then only 1x per week. The other teams will practice at least 2x per week the entire season.

Most games are on Saturdays with a few on Sundays. They are held throughout the Bay Area including San Francisco, Marin, Contra Costa, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz and Alameda counties. Parents are responsible for getting players to and from games, carpooling is recommended.

Communication:

We rely on email and our hotline (650-737-8255) for communication. Please make sure we have current email address(es) and make note of our hotline number.
