2/11/2011 Who's Picture here next??

Each conference will send 2 teams to the playoffs after the re-districting of teams. This was a necessary move by the PLL in order to make scheduling work with the addition of 5 new teams at the Varsity level. Excitement rises as opening day is just a little over 2 weeks away.

12/22 More Teams for 2011.

The growth is not over! More teams coming to the PLL for the 2011 season.  After a 2 year hiatus, Golden Valley will rejoin the league. In Santa Clarita Hart HS will start a varsity team while West Ranch HS will enter a JV team. Montclair is on the fences and possible another team fron San Diego. Santa Monica adds a Varsity team to join their JV program. Simi hopes to add a jv team as well.

balance of the game. Both Teams advance

Arp 2010 El Camino make the news

El Camino Joins the PLL
The need for a HS club lacrosse venue continues as schools experience fluxuation in funding in a tough economy.  In short El Camino was cif and is no more, but with
the closure of all club venues in OC, Ventura Co and San Diego all that remains is the PLL in the LA region.  Fortunately approx 25 club teams remain in the Bay area where we can meet for a state championship.

2/10/ 2010 PLL Season to Start Feb 27th
New teams come into the league for the first
time as "JV".  This allows for more focus on
teaching the game. Teams can learn skills instead of learning how to keep from getting crushed by huge senior heavy teams.  "It's not always been that way. We came in getting tortured by long time programs in the early 2000's" said coach Tyson.

In similar style the SCL formally known as the WCLL for college teams not playing in the NCAA, has allowed for JR College teams to enter the league.  Look for teams like College of the Canyons and Pasadena Community College to join in upcoming seasons.
