This year, the U9 program has seen more young athletes than ever before. More than 40 kids came out who are interested in the travel rep teams, many of whom wore the Griffin jersey last year, some returning after taking a break, and many who are brand new to lacrosse. Each and every one of these players showed us their amazing skills and talents, their determination, and dedication to the sport, and, most importantly, their good sportsmanship toward each other.
