AYLL Coaches and Families,

We know lacrosse season feels like a long way off and some of you are in the middle or tail end of Fall Ball ball, but your AYLL Board is gearing up for another great season of lacrosse for our boys. 

Teams are forming now.  Need a place to play?  We can help!  Please contact us at and we will put you in touch with a coach near you.  In addition, you can review the AYLL Team Contact page for the club contacts.

After our transitioning 2012 and 2013 season to the jamboree-style format, we are looking forward to improving for our third season.  In the spirit of continuous improvement, the AYLL is determined to create the best possible experience for the players.  Ideas including clinics by different experienced coaches, shooting competitions, and multiple game jamborees are all a part of the close knit AYLL. 

2014 will feature a game season beginning on February 1, 2014 and wrapping up with the Cactus Cup on April 4 and 5.  The season will again feature jamboree-style Saturdays, as well as a new twist.  We are working to incorporate single game Friday Night Lights.  The season will conclude with the Cactus Cup and three guaranteed games, up to five based on performance.  Coaches and team Managers, please register your teams so we can begin to work the schedules.

For those interested in participating in the administration of our league, there are opportunities to do so.  We are seeking anyone interested in serving in one of our various Committees.  Please email us at if you are interested. 

Sincerely,
Arizona Youth Lacrosse League

Phoenix, AZ--  The Arizona Youth Lacrosse League (AYLL) is proud to announce the addition of the Phoenix Lacrosse Club (PLC) as its newest member to the League.
 
Club co-founders, James Fishman, Arik Michelson, and Jim Lofton, recognized the need to expand the lacrosse footprint in the Phoenix area thus attracting new players for development towards high school participation.  The affiliation of Phoenix Patriots Lacrosse and Arcadia Dragons Lacrosse to form the PLC will allow the new Club to field three teams in its inaugural 2014 season. Two middle school programs (Div 1 and Div 2) and an elementary 3/4^th grade program will compete in the AYLL. Head Coaches will be announced shortly. Practices will occur under the lights at Arcadia High School.
 
The Club co-founders are excited to see the transition of the program to a vertically integrated model allowing K-8^th grade participation. The Club will have a common philosophy across all age groups teaching good lacrosse fundamentals, while imparting age appropriate skills.  The founders have no doubt that the Phoenix Lacrosse Club will be recognized as the premiere program in the North Central and Camelback Corridor neighborhoods for preparing future Arizona high school lacrosse players.
