Q: Do players have to tryout for Barrington Stampede?

The traditional Spring season will continue to serve as the primary youth lacrosse program of BYL with a focus on learning/loving the game of lacrosse, developing lacrosse skills and having fun while playing lacrosse with their classmates/friends. The BYL Spring season will continue to participate in bi-weekly practices and games with teams primarily set by grades. The BYL Spring season will not include out-of-state travel tournaments.
Barrington Stampede offers a greater emphasis on skill development and competition with1 additional practice each week during the Spring season and a minimum of 2 Spring tournaments with an option for an early Summer tournament as well.
