I got to thinking that the best way to improve our team and make a name for lax is for the club to focus on a youth league.
I propose we form an FCLA (fresno county lacrosse association) or central valley lacrosse association.
To get this started a 5-6 grade league could be formed with the inaguaral season having 4 teams. To do this we would need 60 kids. Play each team twice and have a small tourny at the end. We would also need at least 4 dedicated coaches. Not sure how many guys on the team would be interested in coaching but I think Fresno is ready for lax.
The league could grow to a junior high division by 2008. and high school division by 2010. Sky is the limit from there.
Anyway just some random thoughts from a new player. I'll be in fresno early october finally and would like to get with the team on getting this off the ground. This would also help gain interest in our team and hopefully help attract more guys who would eventually become coaches, refs... you name it.
