Various Decisions have been made:

• Cleats - You are not required to purchase new cleats for the season.  However, if you need to purchase cleats, please follow these guidelines from the Coaches:  “No all Black cleats as it makes you hot and slows you down. Black accents are fine. Cleats must be school colors. We encourage mostly white cleats.”
• Varsity Spring Break will be to LA, California.  Details TBD - the intention will be to schedule the trip from Saturday to mid-week, similar to last year’s schedule.
• Spring Schedule - games are in the process of being booked and published on the School/Jeffco Events Calendar.  You can search for Boys lacrosse games. They are not all in yet, but it is starting to be populated.
• Online Registration for the Spring Season with the Booster Club will begin sometime in December.
• Next Booster Meetings are on November 13th, December 11th and January 8th.
