Break out your lacrosse stick

    The fastest game on two feet has started running.
    The Badlands Lacrosse Association is ready for the upcoming season and has begun practicing at the Badlands Community Facility.
    Already, the rosters are full for most teams after a registration drive at the Sports, Arts, and Recreation Expo earlier this month.
    “We had a really good turnout and had most of our teams filled up that night. Everything but the Bantam team was filled,” said Ren Dumaine, president of the Badlands Lacrosse Association. “Our season has started, with practices in the Community Facility.”
    The association held its annual general meeting on Monday, March 25 in the Badlands Community Facility. One of the topics they addressed is to get more volunteers to help coach or help with the administrative end of the organization.
    “We’ll be in need of coaches in our younger groups. We’re always looking for volunteers in our younger groups,” said Dumaine. “We’re also looking at other volunteers. We could use someone to help us with marketing, because right now, we don’t have enough time to handle that as well as we want to.”
    Badlands Lacrosse continues to benefit from strong support from the community. Last year saw full rosters as well on each team. The teams were busy throughout the season and the Bantam team made a run at the league championship, making it to the semi-finals.
    Anyone who is interested in getting involved with lacrosse or registering on a team is encouraged to drop by Source for Sports.
