[5th - 6th Grade] Bluegrass Lacrosse League [Middle School]

We are excited to be back for the Fall of 2022. The Bluegrass Lacrosse League's primary commitment is teaching the game of lacrosse while providing an unmatched experience and instilling a love for the game.

​

The Bluegrass Lacrosse League (BLL) is a lacrosse league located in Louisville, KY. Players register and are drafted to a team after the designated combine day for your son's age group in September. Based on age and experience, players are placed in one of the four BLL programs (Ninjas, Dragons, Reapers, or Huskies) and in one of the two divisions (A or AA). Every player gets drafted to a team. By having divisions, the BLL  is able to offer a very competitive league and ensure all players will get better, maximize their game time, and have more fun.

​

This year, the BLL schedule is built to allow multi-sport athletes an opportunity to play lacrosse in the Fall, and is built around Fall breaks that have caused some issues in the past. We are excited about the new schedule and have added optional "BLL Skill Development Nights" for all BLL Middle School Divisions.

Playing in the Bluegrass Lacrosse League, players will receive:

• Trained Coaches
• Trained Referees
• Drafted teams
• BLL Optional Skills Camp/Practices
• BLL Shooter shirt
• Team game shorts
• BLL Championship games will be filmed and posted on the L4 Lacrosse Youtube Channel
• Custom Game uniform (Only the JERSEY will be collected at the end of the season)
