LacrOSSe faLL 2019Our Philosophy… The Northville Parks and Recreation Lacrosse program is a community based program that looks to develop players at all skill

levels. Our programs for boys and girls start in 1st grade and runs

through 8th grade. Our program is a leader into the high school lacrosse experience. The lacrosse team

season begins in March and ends early June. Northville Parks and Recreation will offer off-

season lacrosse programs as well throughout the year to introduce new players to the sport and develop experienced players. Our goal is to provide a community based program that allows players to develop not only as

lacrosse players but as teammates within the community fostering long lasting friendships and developing skilled players.

Practice location: Millennium Park Field 1 & 2, unless otherwise noted.

Northville Baseball & Softball Association (NBSA) is excited about the upcoming co-ed Fall Baseball season. If you are looking to extend your season, advance your skills, and have some fun, then NBSA Fall Baseball is the place for you! The season will last approximately 6 weeks, from after Labor Day through mid-October, with games at the 8U, 10U, 12U and 14U. Games will generally be played on weekends, with some of them played under the lights for great night-game experience! One practice per week can also be expected.

Age Groups: 8U ages 6-8, 10U ages 9-10, 12U ages 11-12, 14U ages 13-14. Age cutoff is determined by a player's age as of April 30, but a player can also elect to play with their school grade level (e.g., an 8-year old who turns 9 in February can choose to play either 8U or 10U). We are always looking for: (i) coaching volunteers to work with our young players to improve their skills and (ii) umpires age 14 or older to support our games this fall. Please register on the website if interested.
