North Reading Youth Lacrosse League was formed to foster, encourage, and promote the sport of lacrosse for the children and families of North Reading.  We provide instruction and a positive learning environment for children in 1st through 8th grade. 

As an instructional league, there are no tryouts or playoffs, and all kids are welcome to play, regardless of skill or experience level.  We typically practice twice during the week and play competitive games against teams from other cities and towns on Sundays.

North Reading Youth Lacrosse League is a member of the Massachusetts Bay Youth Lacrosse League (MBYLL), representing over 100 towns in Eastern and Central Massachusetts.  We fully embrace the MBYLL philosophy: 

There are no standings kept, and no league championships or playoffs. We field all players as equally as possible with the goal of teaching the sport and providing a fun experience for all involved. We are determined to provide kids with an outlet that has not been swept up in the pressure filled, win-at-all-cost mania conspicuous in sports today.
