More than 70 boys and girls from eight Baltimore City Recreation Centers participated in the Second Annual BYLL Spring Clinic on May 3, 2008. We were very happy to see some players who had been with the BYLL last year. After a morning of learning the basics, the players put their new skills to the test in a series of fun games including Musical Groundballs and the Numbers Game. Later, the players were treated to pizza and Gatorade. Many of the young participants were excited and ready to go for the start of the BYLL in June.

Excitement Builds for Beginning of BYLL in June

 
   
 

The players, coaches, and recreation center leaders are pumped about the beginning of the summer season on June 3. Many players left the Spring Clinic expressing how excited they were to come back and receive their free sticks, shorts, and jerseys. The coaches were excited to continue teaching young people the game of lacrosse.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED The BYLL is looking for male coaches to help with the recreation center teams in the month of June. For details contact David Skeen at dskeen@calvertschool.org Newsletter Spotlight
