What is Colorado Select?
Colorado Select are teams sponsored by The Colorado Lacrosse Foundation, the official state chapter of US Lacrosse. CLF's mission is to grow and support the sport of lacrosse in Colorado. To that end, Colorado Select teams are formed to provide a positive experience in which the players have an opportunity to learn and improve their game, be a contributing member of a team, make new friends, and have fun!
Colorado Select prides itself on providing our young athletes with an environment that promotes respect, camaraderie, good sportsmanship, refining individual lacrosse skills and enhancing team tactics.
Age Requirements:
· U-15 players must have been born in 1995 or later (boys who have attended high school—including 9th grade—are not eligible; Put another way, current 8th grade boys born in 1995 or 1996 who will enter 9th grade in the Fall of 2010 are eligible)
· U-13 players must have been born in 1997 or later
· U-11 players must have been born in 1999 or later
The criteria is that a player must be under the stated age as of 12/31/2009. For example, U-13 players must have been UNDER the agoe of 13 (i.e., 12 or younger) on 12/31/2009.
The Tryout Process:
Colorado Select teams are selected after a rigorous tryout organized and implemented by CLF volunteers. The selectors are entirely independent—no coaches or parents are permitted to volunteer as selectors for any age group in which their players or children are participating.
The Teams:
Boys:
U-15: At the conclusion of tryouts, 20 players will be selected. The team will play in the Colorado Cup, Denver Shootout, and Vail Tournament. Several alternates at each postion will also be named.
U-13: At the conclusion of tryouts, 20 players will be selected. The team will play in the Colorado Cup, the Denver Shootout, and the Vail tournament. Several alternates at each position will also be named.
U-11: At the conclusion of tryouts, 20 players will be selected. The team will play in the Colorado Cup and Denver Shootout. Several alternates at each positon will also be named.
If you are chosen to play on any Colorado Select team and drop your roster spot for any reason other than injury, the Colorado Select Committee reserves the right to refuse future registrations to try out for Colorado Select teams.
The Coaches:
Coaches are volunteers chosen because of their lacrosse knowledge and background, as well as their commitment to helping young players love the sport of lacrosse. Parents of Colorado Select players are not permitted to coach.
The Practices:
Generally, practices will begin after the regular league season is completed (i.e., after the Jamboree). There could be a limited number of workouts in May and we will do our best to not conflict with your spring team schedule. Beginning in early June, practices will be held 2-3 times a week at a Denver park. Practices are generally held in the late afternoon/evening (since our volunteer coaches have day jobs and some of the players are in year round school).
