Does every player get equal playing time?
We do not guarantee playing time, and our coaches have control over who is placed on the field based on how they are playing.
What does my son need to bring to tryouts?
Please bring all equipment - sticks, gloves, pads, mouth guard, helmet, and pinnie. Each player is also responsible for bringing their own water, hydration is a key element in the players’ performance. Our Coaches will break regularly for water, please pack enough for the duration of the event.

All information regarding practice will be listed on the Leatherbacks team page.

For all information on club membership, please contact, leatherbacks@sweetlaxlacrosse.com.
Will there be separate tryouts for the summer if my child cannot participate in the fall?
There will be one tryout in August for the Fall and Summer team. If a player is unable to attend tryouts please contact srpdirector@sweetlaxlacrosse.com and we will coordinate an alternative tryout.
What is your refund policy?
If a player commits and pays for a season they are obligated to play short of an injury. Anyone accepting a roster spot has been picked ahead of other players so it’s important they honor their commitment. No refunds will be given if a player quits the team as they will leave a void on our rosters.
What time should I arrive at an event?
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start time (allow for more time if you need to register). Please have your player dressed in their gear and ready to play prior to the event starting (unless otherwise noted by the Coaches).
What do I bring to a tryout or practice?
Each player needs to come to their scheduled event with all gear (sticks, gloves, pads, mouth guard, helmet, and pinnie). Each player is also responsible for bringing their own water to last the duration of the event. Hydration is a key element in the players’ performance. If a player forgets their water, please be sure to have them let the Coach know so that we can accommodate.
