LACROSSE in WEST VIRGINIA
NEWS ARCHIVES - FALL 2024
Sept. 29 - 11:00 AM
MORE DETAILS:
On October 19th, 2024, we've planned a full day of sixes lacrosse to allow our athletes another opportunity to compete in the fall. Each region of the state (Eastern Panhandle, Central Area, Northern Panhandle, and Southern Region) can submit a regional representative team for the tournament. Teams can be comprised of the athletes within the local region (for example - a team of Preston, Fairmont, Morgantown, and University play together as the Central Region.
- We have chosen to do regional representative teams due to the many athletes competing in other fall sports.
This allows our athletes to participate in an excellent off-season event that will strengthen their skills and create exposure for college coaches through social media posts and extra film.
The tournament will be held at Holloway Field on the Linsly School campus (the area directly behind TJ's Sports Garden) in Wheeling.
- Each roster is to be composed of a maximum of 15 players.
- Games will be 12-minute quarters - running clock.
- It will follow the fast-paced nature of the Olympic Sixes format.
- There will be two semifinal games, a championship game,
and a consolation game (2 games total).
- With success, we hope to expand this event to more teams next year.
The Northern Panhandle and Southern Region have teams ready to go.
Once completed, please email your teams or person so we can prepare the bracket.
There is no cost to play.
Please email Tucker Wilkinson at twilkinson@linsly.org if you have any questions.
