Happy Monday Lady Titan LAX Family,

What a great start to 2019! Our team had its first indoor session of the winter at Lakeland Community Church yesterday afternoon. We had about 41 girls attend yesterday, which is the largest number we have ever had for indoor. I want everyone to know how excited that makes to the coaching staff to see so many girls participating. We have 7 more of these Sunday sessions before the official start of the Spring 2019 season, and I am very excited to see our team come together.

This upcoming Thursday evening, we will be having our monthly LSW Lacrosse Board Meeting at LSW’s Library at 7pm. These meetings are completely optional for everyone that is not on the Board. If you would like to attend, you are more than welcome. We can always use help with planning major events like Senior Night, the End of Season Banquet, etc. We will also discuss the fiscal health of the club and receive updates from the coaches from each team.

Last night at the end of practice I shared some information on some important events that I have planned for our team. There are 3 events that I wanted to make everyone aware of that are coming up. Please mark your calendars.

• Team Lock-in on 15 FEB 2019 at Lakeland Community Church. We will be spending the night as a team (this will include members of the coaching staff) overnight Friday night into Saturday morning. I will be sending more details out as it gets closer. The church is allowing us to use the facility at no cost, so we just need to bring our own food & drink, and make sure we clean up after ourselves before we leave. Our team Seniors are taking the lead on planning the details for the lock-in. I’ll be sharing those details soon.

• Lee’s Summit vs Omaha / Des Moines Playdate on 29-30 MARCH. They will travel to LSMO and we’ll have a 3v3 tournament where each LS team will play each Omaha/Des Moines team. All 3 Lee’s Summit girls teams will be playing. This is supposed to be a Varsity-level tournament, but the position coaches will be deciding which JV players they will want to invite to participate as the date gets closer.

• KC vs STL Playdate on 5-6 APRIL. Our Varsity team will travel to St. Louis to play 3 STL area teams (1 on Fri night, 2 on Sat). As of right now, the 3 STL area teams are Lafayette, Cor Jesu and Parkway West. From KC, we have LSW and St. Teresa’s committed, and we are waiting on the 3rd team to commit.

I promise I have not forgotten about the JV team. We are waiting to hear from our contact at Columbia, MO on the details for the Columbia Tournament. As soon as I get details, I’ll share them with everyone.

That’s it for now. If anyone has any questions, please let me know. If you still owe money for the indoor sessions or for the season dues, please get your payments to Mr. Rasdall as soon as possible.

Have a great week.
~Coach Jay
