The Box Season

The typical spring schedule for box lacrosse is between 15 and 20 league games depending on the division. It starts early-April and ends at the end of June. Those teams qualifying for Provincials will play into July. A week is made up of one practice and up to two games, with some travel due to away games in other cities across the Lower Mainland. Practice, game days and times depend on the team to which your child is assigned. Please note that U7 and U9 teams play “in-house” and may only travel as far as Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam for their away games.

The KidSport™ Fund

The KidSport™ Fund is a program of Sport BC designed to “remove the financial obstacles that prevent underprivileged children from playing sport in British Columbia”. Each child aged 6 – 18 who applies is eligible for up to $300 for one season of sport. The grant is provided directly to the club or sport organization. For information on this program, click here.

Jumpstart

Jumpstart is a national charity supported by Canadian Tire Corporation with a commitment to sports in local communities. Children can be funded for successive seasons in a sport up to a maximum of $300 per sport; subject to Chapter discretion and/or local demands.

  1. A player is not registered until a complete registration form is received and payment is received in full.

  3. Returning players’ (as per BCLA policy) birth certificate numbers will now be a mandatory field in the online registration process.
  4. Players in each division will be entered on a wait list in the sequence of registration. A returning player will have their place reserved until 31 December 2023 after which they will automatically go to the top of the waiting list.
  5. The maximum number of players and goalies for one team is set by the BCLA.
  6. In addition to registration fees collected by the PMLA, each team manager will be responsible for collecting jersey deposit cheques of $100 (U7 $75) post-dated to 01 August 2024.

  8. PMLA has introduced mandatory Concussion Baseline Testing using the CCMI protocol this season (not applicable to U7 & U9 players); more details will be available prior to the season commencing. If you have a recent Baseline Test completed via PMAHA this will be transferable to PMLA.
