Westside is excited for its 3rd season of fielding teams at all levels in the KCMGLA metro-league. We have gone from the beginner club without much talent to now having some of the best players and teams in the city. Our program is turning many girls into lacrosse stars and we are hoping to do the same for a lot more!
All teams will have games at Blue Valley North on Sunday's against teams from across the metro. Each team should expect 9 to 10 regular season games in the Sunday KCMGLA metro league and all 3 programs (3/4, 5/6 and 7/8) will have 1 to 3 in the season ending tournament. We will also have internal program games on Friday evenings at Blue Valley North for 5/6 and 7/8.
Sunday Game Days: March 26th, April 2nd, April 16th, April 23rd, April 30th, May 7th.
Season Ending Tournament Day: May 14th.
April 29th we are tentatively planned to host teams from Des Moines and Omaha for a game day. This will be for 5/6 and 7/8. Those games will be for select players in the program.
New players should look at the beginner player section to see about equipment options.
