Rain, rain go away! Come again another day. ELC wants to play!

The rain has once again turned our fields into a swamp. Due to field conditions, all normal league practices at Cheyenne and at Acts 2 are cancelled for Thursday, April 11th. However, some coaches are considering alternative locations for practices, so please watch for emails from your coach.

Thank you,

Anthony Maze
ELC Youth Boys Coordinator

Kudos to my ref team. On February 23rd, we sent out five referees to help call games in other areas. Bill Barker traveled to NWA, and called a JV game by himself. I heard from several that he did just as good as some of the two man ref teams. Berry Dobbs, traveled to Tulsa, to call HS ball all day long. Again, I heard good comments about Berry. Thank you to both of these adults for representing Edmond in such a positive way. A huge thank you to three of our High School aged refs that traveled to Tulsa to call youth games. Caleb Dobbs and Connor Bannon, called 3/4 and 5/6 level games all day. Reece Anderson, called 7/8 games, and was the lead official. We require our HS aged refs, to take the Level 1 Clinic, and to be equipped like an adult referee. These three did an outstanding job. Such a good job, that I have been contacted about the three of them coming over two more Saturdays to call games. Thanks to all five of these refs, for representing ELC is such a positive way.

Our youth games will begin on March 30th and will continue into May. During that time we will schedule over 120 games, including more than 40 games during our 2nd Annual "Laxapalooza" on April 13th & 14th. On that weekend, we will host teams from Tulsa, NWA, Holland Hall, and Wichita.

Please know that our primary focus continues to be the safety of your players not only on the field, but also in the Cheyenne parking lot. This season, we will continue blocking off the road between the school and the fields to protect our players. Please be on the lookout out for kids darting into and around the parking lot! In addition, remember that parking in the grass is not permitted.

Lastly, our program is run entirely by volunteers. We need your help, whether it's working in the concession stand on game days or helping set up the fields. Please jump in and help us continue to build your Edmond Lacrosse program.

ELC would like to congratulate Hannah Dowell and Chloe Webber on signing with Oklahoma Baptist University for the 2013-2014 season. These are outstanding achievements made possible by Hannah and Chloe’s hard work and dedication on and off the field, as well as the hard work of ELC’s coaches and Coach Katy Mohr’s eye for solid talent. In a recent press release, Coach Mohr commented that both players would be “great additions to the OBU program due to their strong work ethic and love of the game”.

Chloe Webber is an attacker for ELC’s Girls High School Team and is an honor roll student at Memorial. Hannah Dowell, a student at Edmond North, is a midfielder for the ELC squad and also serves as one of the team’s captains. Hannah was voted as the team’s most improved player for the spring 2012 season.

Congratulations Hannah and Chloe!

FROM THE GIRLS COORDINATOR’S CORNER

The spring 2013 season is well underway for the Girls High School Team and is shaping up to be the most competitive and successful season in the history of the ELC Girls High School Program. The team started the season going 2-2 in Little Rock and has been working hard to improve skills and build the team in preparation for games in Wichita on April 6th and for games against NWA and Wichita in Edmond at Laxapolooza on April 13-14th. The team recently celebrated the recruitment of Hannah Dowell and Chloe Webber to Oklahoma Baptist University, and coaches continue to field questions from college coaches about players on the ELC roster. Keep up the hard work girls.

Games for the youth girls’ begin on March 30th. Players and coaches have been working to teach new skills and improve existing skills. As with anything, practice makes perfect, and our players have been working hard! ELC will host the NWA youth girls squad at Laxapolooza in a few weeks and hopes to field teams at NWA’s LaxFest in April and at the Wounded Warrior Playday in Texas in May.

On another note, I have had some players and parents ask about the fastest way to become a better lacrosse player…my answer is, and will likely always be…HIT THE BALL WALL! Every minute you spend at the ball wall develops your skills and makes you a better lacrosse player. If you need suggestions about what to do while you’re at the ball wall, ask one of your coaches. You don’t need to spend an hour every day, but the more time you spend and the more times you go, the more results you’ll see!

A great start to the season, ladies. Keep up the good work!
