Bethesda Lacrosse Club supports the multi-sport athlete and encourages girls to play other sports off season to increase their athleticism and to be engaged in other activities. Lacrosse is expected to be the primary sport in the spring months (March-June).
Bethesda Lacrosse Club is a year-round commitment. Players are encouraged to attend fall and winter training with their team, yet it is acceptable that a fall or winter sport take precedence. It is expected that players commit fully to their club lacrosse team for Spring season and tournaments since the main season for lacrosse is the spring. Bethesda Lacrosse Club keeps a small bench with a minimal roster. Players absences in the spring/summer due to other sports affect both coaches, players and team cohesion.
Lacrosse is a TEAM sport. We understand there are other commitments that players will have to miss lacrosse to attend. These will be viewed as excused absences with prior notice to the coaches. Players who are not committed take up valuable roster spots from players who would love to be part of the team so we expect players to make every effort possible to be at games and practices (in the spring and summer especially).
