Girls 3rd through 8th Grade Program

This program is aimed at girls in grades 3 through 8, this program focuses on player development thru level teams and a philosophy that everyone plays regardless of skill and experience level. Teams practice 2 nights per week and will play 8 games on Sundays, plus the end-of-season Jamboree. Teams are organized by grade: U11 is for 3^rd and 4^th graders, U13 is for 5^th and 6^th graders, and U15 is for 7^th and 8^th graders. 

Girls 1st & 2nd Grade Program

We also offer an In-town program for 1st and 2nd graders. Practices and scrimmages will be on Saturday afternoons. Focus is on FUN and skills. We generally will schedule a few scrimmages with other towns as the girls become more comfortable with the game. Games are played on a small field with 7 players per team.
