10U Boys City League

Update for Spring 2025:  Final plans will depend on total number of registrations and age/experience of registered players, but our intention is to return to a game schedule that is mostly based on playing other clubs and not just games amongst other Granite bay teams/players.

Introduction

Granite Bay Youth Lacrosse is pleased to offer a City League program for players in the 10U age group, specifically tailored for those just starting out. 

The boys 10U City League program requires full lacrosse equipment - which includes helmet, shoulder pads, elbow pads, gloves, mouth guard and cup and cleats - such as standard soccer cleats.

Those 8U players who are interested in playing 10U full-equipment lacrosse may be considered for play at this level if deemed appropriate by the parents, the player, and coaches.

The object of the game is to score more goals than your opponent.  Lacrosse a fast-paced, high scoring game, and is the fastest growing sport - particularly in California.   There are many opportunities to play lacrosse at all levels including youth and high school, club and college.

Granite Bay’s City League was designed to avoid most scheduling conflicts with other sports and activities.  City League is ideal for players with minimal to no lacrosse experience, and each season a substantial number of players are brand new to lacrosse.

Most City League players will be in 4th grade or younger. Please visit our age eligibility page for more information

 

Season Length, Practices, Games, and Locations

Our City League program runs from late February - mid May.  

Practices are generally held twice weekly in Granite Bay.

After a few weeks of practices, the boys are placed on City League teams.

Games start in March and are held on Friday evenings in Granite Bay, Folsom, Fair Oaks, Sacramento or El Dorado Hills.  This is by design to avoid most conflicts with other sports and activities.  There are opportunities for optional festivals, and jamborees which may occur on weekends and offer players additional playing time if they desire.
