ALL REC TEAMS

Absolutely no outside club/travel players may play in this league with the exception of 2nd and 3rd grade BLC players. ANY PLAYER FOUND IN VIOLATION WILL BE IMMEDIATELY EJECTED. PLAYERS MAY ONLY PARTICIPATE ON ONE TEAM WITHIN THIS LEAGUE. THIS WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED! 

Bethesda Lacrosse Association reserves the right to limit the number of "club" players on each team for 2nd/3rd. We are working to create parity between teams in each division and appreciate everyone's understanding. We will allow between 3-6 club players per team (dependent on registrations) per season. Our goal is to have a balanced league with competitive games for all skill levels. Bethesda Lacrosse Association remains as the area's only non-profit youth lacrosse program that works to bring the love of lacrosse to all those that are interested in playing in a format that safe, fun, competitive and instructional.
