LA’s Northern Virginia Youth Lacrosse League (NVYLL) program provides players from all experience and skill levels the opportunity to play against a wider variety of teams in a more competitive system. NVYLL play consists of A, B, and C level programs, with teams at the A level comprising the most experienced players and C level focusing on new and developmental players. No experience is required to play NVYLL lacrosse and our C teams have had successful seasons while including many first-year players on their rosters.

SLA NVYLL players are assessed in our January and February Saturday sessions to determine the most appropriate level of play for them. Weeknight practices will begin in mid-February usually two nights per week with games beginning in late March. The NVYLL season comprises 8 regular season games (4 home, 4 away) with 1 to 3 post-season playoff games at away sites. The season concludes by the end of May.

Girls 7/8: Girls in grades 7 and 8 for the 2025-2026 school year 

Girls 5/6: Girls in grades 5 and 6 for 2025-2026 school year
