Suffield Youth Lacrosse 2013 Registration Deadline

On-line registration for the 2013 Suffield Youth Lacrosse season is taking place now until Jan. 19 at suffieldlacrosse.org. The lacrosse organization is for boys and girls in grades 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 and includes Lax Cats our program from K-2nd grade.

Our goal is to teach the fundamentals and rules of the game as well as good sportsmanship and teamwork. These are all traveling teams except for Lax Cats.  

Uniforms need to be purchased when registering for new players and returning players are urged to check for outgrowth. Uniforms are not part of the registration fee. For additional information or questions about the lacrosse programs, please call Tom Johnson at 860-668-4474 or email at tv-johnson@cox.net.

Coach Miller and Coach Morris met this week at the Association winter meeting with both the boys and girls coaches.  The season is well under way!  They will begin game scheduling session in late February and to do so will need a complete roster.

Many have already signed up, yet Coach Miller and Coach Morris are actively recruiting an additional 7-10 boys.  If your son is now in grades 5-6 and wants to join our team, go to suffieldlacrosse.org and sign him up TODAY.

In February, we will contact each team member to go over uniform and equipment requirements, early gym-date practices, and team guidelines.  If you have any questions, call Kevin Miller 860-830-7753 or Will Morris 860-729-8148.

The problem is resurfacing all the roads in Suffield would cost a great deal of money. Suffield is aRead More big town. I do understand that some roads in Suffield do not have enough adjacent suitable land to create a separate bike lane, but I believe bike lanes could be constructed along sections of some scenic roads. Half a loaf is better than none at all. Salvatore, if you have not already been there, you may want to consider cycling on the island of Nantucket. I have not been there in years, but outside of its main town, Nantucket did offer good riding conditions and peaceful surroundings--at least when I visited.

Thank you for your comment. Actually, I was simply suggesting that roads are resurfaced. There isn'tRead More probably enough room for bike lanes on most of these backroads, but if at least the pavement was brought to an acceptable condition, that would make biking much more pleasant (I should say "possible") and, let's not forget, much safer. Some particularly damaged areas represent a serious danger to bikers' safety.

There may be a solution--a compromise of sorts. Put a narrow, but well-maintained bike lane on largeRead More sections of each scenic road in town, the roads with fewer cars and trucks. Just having the bike lanes may be draw for out-of-town cyclists to visit Suffield and spend money at local businesses. Instead of attempting to change Suffield into a metropolitan area, with all the problems that brings, celebrate (and financially support) its original identity--a scenic, peaceful agricultural town with some nice amenities.
