Boys Program
Glastonbury Lacrosse Club's boys program is dedicated to providing boys ages 6-14 the opportunity to experience one of the fastest growing youth sports in the US. We serve residents of Glastonbury and residents of neighboring towns who do not have a USA Lacrosse recognized program.
Our program welcomes players of any skill or experience levels with a mission to grow the great game of Lacrosse.
Ages
The boys program is separated into four separate age groupings:
- Rising Stars K-2nd
- Bantams 3rd & 4th
- Juniors 5th & 6th
- Seniors 7th & 8th
Programs available to players will be based on their birthday and USA Lacrosse's age brackets.
*Age Guidelines can be found on the USA Lacrosse Website
When
While our boys program is progressively beginning to offer opportunities to play year-round, our primary season is in the Spring.
The Spring season typically starts early April thru Mid-June.

Games can be held in place of practices and during weekdays or weekends.
