posted 01/01/2012 A few people have asked about winter camps/clinics/leagues for ther children. While WYL believes it is good to get the kids using their sticks and developing thier skills in the offseason, we do not specifically endorse or directly participate in any of the following options:
1. Xcel Lacrosse has a league at TeamWorks in Northboro starting on the 8th that may be appropriate for returning players. Info can be found at http://xcellacrosse.com/leaguesBoysYouth.asp
2. Xcel also offers a clinic in February that may be good to get kids back in the habit of using their sticks. There is also a clinic specifically for beginners. http://xcellacrosse.com/news.asp?DocID=629
3. Forekicks in Marlboro has leagues starting in the end of January where kids could join as a team, small group or individual. http://www.forekicks.com/marlboro/content/index.cfm?Fuseaction=leaguedetail&Type=3#Session2
4. Next Level Lacrosse also offers clinics at TeamWorks in Northboro. This may be geared toward a higher skill level than the Xcel clinic above. http://www.nextlevellax.net/Camps.htm
5. Finally, NESLL holds a variety of clinics at Forekicks during January and February that may be useful. http://nesll.org/blog/programs/nesll-skill-development-clinics/
These are a few of the local options available during the off season. I suspect there are others if you are willing to travel further. Please feel free to let me know if there are others worth listing.
Each of these options is available for the individual to choose but if you are interested in any of them and would like me to coordinate with other players, please send an e-mail to
