What Will I Need to Start Practicing?

USA Lacrosse Membership – You are going to need a High School level USA Lacrosse Membership ($35.00) for the player.
- All Eagles Lacrosse players are required to be members of USA LACROSSE to supplement personal insurance policies. OUR LEAGUE (MGLL) and ALL TOURNAMENTS REQUIRE THAT ATHLETES HAVE THIS COVERAGE.
- You must renew your membership annually. We will check memberships prior to each season.
- To become a US Lacrosse Member, visit the USA Lacrosse Membership page
Mouth Guard – You will need a mouth-guard, this is required by the Lacrosse Rulebook.
- The mouth-gaurd cannot be white or clear, it cannot have “teeth” graphics on it and it cannot have protruding tabs (meaning, it can’t be the kind that would attach to a football helmet) – We usually recommend
Lacrosse Shoes/Cleats – You will need Lacrosse or Soccer cleats.
- We recommend Lacrosse specific shoes, we also understand starting a new sport brings a lot of challenges. So, if you want to use soccer shoes, that is perfectly acceptable.

Commitment

It is CRUCIAL that all players demonstrate commitment not only to Omaha Eagles Lacrosse, but also to their individual development and growth by attending all training sessions and games in season. It is required that the player use TeamSnap and update their availability for all team related activities.

All players (middle school, high school) are expected to attend ALL practices. While Eagles Lacrosse HIGHLY encourages dual-sport and multi-activity participation, it is the player’s responsibility to be committed to the program and communicate in advance if a conflict should arise.
