1) FACEBOOK: The most timely way to receive messages is on our Facebook page, "Chesterfield Hammers Lacrosse". If you don't follow this page, you may want to. Many times we are out on-site and not able to generate emails. Timely updates, partcularly for weather, are communicated via this platform.

2) WEATHER: Per above, weather updates will be posted first on the Facebook page (and sometimes only on the Facebook page). Please be aware, for some fields, Chesterfield County doesn't make a call until 7am. We do play in the rain. Lightning and/or poor field conditions are really the only things that prevent us from playing.

3) UNIFORMS & EQUIPMENT: Unforms are bulk shipped by our vendor all at once and are planned for shipping next week. Those that ordered later in the cycle may also see a one-week delay, so please be advised. Games don't begin until March 13th, so everyone should be set by then. For those that have not yet secured equipment, please see the Facebook page for a full list of gear needed. And don't forget those mouthguards!

4) PRACTICE: Practice schedules have been posted on Facebook and the website. Practices begin on Monday, March 1st at either River City Sportsplex or Midlothian Middle School.

5) TEAM ASSIGNMENTS: Team assignments will not be made until after the first week of practices once coaches have had time to evaluate players. We do the best we can to create parity among teams so that skill levels are distributed evenly.

6) GAMES: Games begin Saturday, March 13th. Game schedules will be released at the same time that team assignments are made. Home games for girls will be at Horner Park and home games for boys will be split between Horner Park and Mary Stratton. We are working with several other leagues and will also have several away games throughout the season.

7) HAVOC Tournament: The tournament will held at River City Sportsplex on May 8th. Please note that we will still have one more week of games after the tournament this year on May 15th.

8) COVID Protocols: Chesterfield County has very specific COVID protocols in place for players, coaches, and parents. Please review the attached document before coming to the fields next week. We are very thankful to be able to host a spring lacrosse season and emphasize the need to be diligent of these protocols for the safety of all involved. 

9) PAYMENT: If you have not yet paid the registration fee, pleae log into the website and pay before arriving on-site next week. If you have not paid by check-in next week, we will ask you to pay on-site.

10) ON-SITE: We will have a check-in area at River City Sportsplex on Monday and Tuesday of next week. Please be sure to check-in with me before proceeding to your specific field. For boys 1/2, the coaches will be administering check-in over at Midlothian Middle School.
