North District News
I just wanted to let all know that we are working on the league’s expansion with teams outside the current THSLL districts – Dallas, Houston, Austin and San Antonio.We need your help.
Our goal is to provide boys the opportunity to play this great sport in areas outside the current THSLL districts – Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston.
We are working with current teams in West Texas, East Texas and South Texas to help them join the THSLL: El Paso, Midland, Amarillo, San Angelo, Lubbock, Abilene, Marshall and Corpus Christi are all working to join, and all are in various stages of development.
We NEED the support of our lacrosse community to help fund our expansion and to grow the sport. Without expansion into areas the THSLL currently does not have teams, the UIL will not give Lacrosse a look at becoming a school sport in Texas.
We understand that this past year has been financially difficult for many families and businesses within our community, but we remain hopeful that we can work together to support each other and rise above these difficult times.
To give you an idea of what your donations could fund:
- $35 pays for one player to be insured by USA Lacrosse
- $50 pays for one coach to be insured by USA Lacrosse, which includes USA Lacrosse Level 1 Coaches' Certification Training
- $100 buys a case of 100 balls for a program
- $250 outfits a player with all of his safety gear and a stick
- $500 Pays league dues for a JV team or a new team joining the league
- $700 Pays league dues for a varsity team
- $1,000 outfits a program with a set of 2 goals
In order to reach our goals, we are asking for your support. We would greatly appreciate any donation you can provide. Your donation is tax free.
We have set up a fundraiser account on Go fund me: Fundraiser by THSLL BoD : THSLL Expansion! (gofundme.com)

Mike
