8. Boys Allowable Contact
This year’s point of emphasis: targeting of the head or a defenseless player is a 3 minute non-releasable penalty and ejection from game.
14U: Player must have both hands on his crosse. Check must be delivered on player with ball or within 3 yards of ball. Any excessive body check where player lowers head or shoulder with force and intent to put other player on ground should be penalized.
8U to 12U: No body checking but some contact including boxing out and non- violent pushing from front or side.

9. Norwin Lacrosse Club is a volunteer run organization
It takes a lot of work to run Norwin Lacrosse Club. As a result, we implemented a $25 volunteer fee per player this year.
Families are required to volunteer for 1 “spot” for each player. The volunteer fee will be refunded after completion of the volunteer requirement.
We NEED your help to run the club. There are over 200 volunteer spots available. Examples: Preseason volunteer opportunities to help with uniforms or organizing the team on photo day. Game day volunteer opportunities include announcer, gamebook keeper.
Sign up the volunteer table.
SignUp Genius link will be sent out.
PLEASE HELP!
