Player Evaluations

Evaluations & Team Selections 12U & 14U

Evaluations and Team Selection 12U & 14U: 

Evaluations occur prior to each season to organize the teams according to perimeters set up by the South Jersey Youth Lacrosse League.  Teams can consist of players grouped by bracketing level: A, AB or B.  Evaluations will be used to properly rate players to a bracket in the 12U & 14U divisions. (see below)  Teams may have mixed player brackets due to lack of numbers to fulfill a full team/positions at one level.  When players are placed on teams, it means that as a TEAM they can collectively compete in that bracket. It is strongly recommended that players and parents do not place too much emphasis on the brackets, as many factors go into determining team players and league brackets. Take into consideration that the Marlton Girls Lacrosse Program is a recreational program as opposed to a club team.  The South Jersey Youth Lacrosse League develops the schedule to play other teams in surrounding towns; while travel is required to play, this is not considered a travel sport.  Teams will be released after the SJYLL bracketing meeting.

No refunds are given after evaluations.  No refunds are given after teams are released.
