Following a successful GIAG session last week, full mixed training will start this Thursday, at the same time and place as the previous session (5pm, Goodwin Pitch F).  Whether you came to the GIAG session or not, all are welcome to attend.  If you would like to join the men's or women's sessions afterwards, speak to one of the captains during the mixed session or contact them.

Our GIAG session has now been confirmed for Thursday 29th September, 5-6pm Goodwin Astroturf Pitch F.

Come along for a fun taster session in Lacrosse, learn the basic skills (pass, catch and shoot) and make LAX mates for life.  The session is for boys and girls looking to try out lacrosse and meet some of the current members.  Tickets are just £3 and can be bought online or from the Union box office now.  Alternatively, turn up and pay on the day.

If you would like to come, please also sign up to receive further information nearer the time and wear suitable sports clothing (we'll be outside on astroturf).  Hope to see you there.

We have now finalised training times for next year as follows:
Thursday 5-6pm - Mixed Training
Thursday 6-8pm - Men's and Women's Training
This will be on Goodwin pitches E & F, find it here.  Training will start on Thursday 6th October with a Give It A Go session the week before on Thursday 29th September.

Following their undefeated season, the women's team capped of an excellent year by winning the prestigious Team of the Year award at the annual University of Sheffield Sports Awards. The girls finished a difficult season by winning the Northern 2A Conference, gaining promotion to the 1A league and then went on to win the Northern Conference Cup and of course beat close rivals Sheffield Hallam in Varsity.

The Sports Awards 2011 took place on 18th of May 2011 at the Octagon and at this event the Sheffield University Lacrosse Club organised a Charity Raffle for which some amazing prizes were donated such as 3 nights stay for 2 in a 5 star hotel in MALTA including flights, signed photograph of Darren Fletcher, £135 Gift card at www.onepiece.com, £50 voucher for PA Jewellery, 2 free tickets for any show at sheffield theatres as well as over 30 more fantastic prizes collected by our culb members.
The raffle was hugely successful raising £2883.03 for a charity so dear to us, we'd like to say a HUGE thank you to everybody involved in collecting the prizes as well as all those who generously bought so many tickets!!
Congratulations everyone!!

This years AGM was the prefect opportunity to wrap up what has been an excellent season for the Lacrosse Club. Team awards were given out on the night and thanks were given to this years committee for all of their hard work through out the season. We wish the best of luck to all of our players who graduate this year and hope to see them again in the future at our Old Boys and Old Girls games.
