The Northern Vermont Youth Lacrosse league is a non-profit co-ed lacrosse league located in Northern Vermont. The league is divided into three age groups 3/4th grade, 5/6th grade and 7/8th grade. League games are held on Saturdays (boys) and Sundays (girls) from early May to mid-June. Teams may also arrange games themselves during the week. For the 5/6 and 7/8 teams scores and standing are kept and 7/8 has playoffs across two or more divisions.
Mission Statement
The mission of NVTYLL is to promote sportsmanship and athletic achievement through the game of lacrosse. We work to grow the sport by providing quality instruction and coaching of lacrosse fundamentals, skills, techniques, and strategies. We focus on developing both the individual and team skills necessary for fair and fun play. We want each and every participant to feel like they have made a contribution to themselves as well as to their respective team both on and off the field. We aim to be a feeder program for kids who wish to play lacrosse in high school and beyond. And, most importantly, we teach players to “Honor the Game” by respecting the rules, opponents, officials, teammates and themselves.
