2008 SPRING REGISTRATION
 
   
PLEASE READ REGISTRATION INFORMATION AND AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE CLICK ON SPORTABILITY LOGO TO BEGIN ACTUAL REGISTRATION PROCESS.

Welcome!
We are excited about our 8th year of bringing the sport of lacrosse to the children of the Danville, Alamo and San Ramon area. The success of our program has helped lead to the creation of lacrosse programs for both girls and boys at all of our local High Schools. We will look to improve upon our success from last year, which saw 450 players spend their Spring having fun, improving their skills, demonstrating teamwork and exhibiting their passion for the game.

This year our challenge will continue. We are again expecting at least 450 players. However, we believe there will be significantly more kids who want to play but the Scorpion Program will be unable to accommodate them because of limited qualified coaches.

New Coaches and Assistant Coaches Needed!
Therefore we make a plea to all new or current parents (with coaching experience from other sports) with kids that are playing this year. Please consider volunteering to be an assistant coach. We will teach you the game and hopefully in a year or two you can be ready to take over a team of your own enabling our growth by another 25 players. We will provide coaching clinics, assistance and whatever else is needed to have a successful season.
