Registration for the 2025 Kingston Krossfire Lacrosse season will open on Friday January 10, 2025.


We changed things up a bit this year. We now offer a Development Stream that will focus on building lacrosse skills, and a Rep Stream for athletes interested in a more competitive environment.

After registration we will hold tryouts for those interested in the Rep Stream. The tryout schedule will be announced soon!

U7: skills- and games-based

U9-U13: scrimmages will be “place-and-push” to start and cross checking will be integrated towards the end of the season. This season will progress as shown below, starting with more skills and moving towards full scrimmages in the last 2 weeks of the season.

Weeks 1 & 2: 45 minutes skills / 15 minutes scrimmage

Weeks 3 & 4: 30 minutes skills / 30 minutes scrimmage

Weeks 5 & 6: 15 minutes skills / 45 minutes scrimmage

Weeks 7 & 8: 5 minute warmup / 55 minute scrimmage

Week 9: Fun Day

U15/U17: the objective with this age is to play a “sixes” style game that is fast-paced with an emphasis on excellent ball movement and control. To that end, games will be “place-and-push” only with no cross checking for the entire season, however, this age group will progress to full scrimmages more quickly than the younger divisions.

Weeks 1-4: 30 minutes skills / 30 minutes scrimmage

Weeks 5-8: 5 minute warmup / 55 minute scrimmage

Week 9: Fun Day
