Welcome to the fourth season of EAA Lacrosse! 

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ

Prior to registering for the lacrosse season, all players will need to register for a membership with USA Lacrosse ($35).  This provides insurance for the players and many lacrosse resources.  All players competing in the Omaha Lacrosse League are required to have a USA Lacrosse membership and your membership number will be required in the EAA registration process.  We will be required to provide USA Lacrosse Membership numbers to the OLC for all of our players.

START HERE:  Register for, or Renew your USA Lacrosse membership here: USA Lacrosse Membership  (Note:  Renewing early will not result in lost months of membership, just ensure no interruption in eligibility.)

Age groups are determined by USA Lacrosse and our league, the Omaha Lacrosse Club.  EAA is accepting girls and boys in 3rd - 8th Grades.

Lacrosse is a fun and fast-paced sport for boys and girls where players learn catching, cradling, passing, ground balls, shooting, dodging and defending.  It is now officially a sport that will be included in the 2028 Olympics!  Our recreational program is focused on athlete development including footwork, speed, agility, hand-eye coordination & endurance.  Lacrosse develops the total athlete and is the perfect compliment to any sport.  Did you know that boys and girls lacrosse are fairly different?  Girls lacrosse is non-contact (about the same amount of contact you would expect in basketball) and does not require helmets and pads, only eyewear and a mouthguard. Boys lacrosse is a contact sport where helmets and pads are required.  There is also a difference in sticks.  Boys have a much larger pocket on their sticks, while girls' pockets are very shallow.  Some male defensemen are able to carry a longer stick, while in the female game, all the sticks are a similar regulation length.  Feel free to ask any questions you may have by calling Anne Inzerello at 402-289-8358.

Elkhorn teams compete within the Omaha Lacrosse Club League with other teams in the Omaha/Lincoln Metro area.  Games are held on Sundays (with the occasional Saturday for tournament play) at the CHI Multi Sport Complex in La Vista.  EAA will have teams for 10U, 12U and 14U boys and girls.  The 10U girls will be more academy-style practices, but will hopefully have an opportunity for games as well, depending on the total number of female 10U registrants in the Omaha area. In the event that games are added for the 10U girls, there will be an additional $100 fee to cover jerseys, field time and referees.

In an effort to make lacrosse more accessible to all, OLC and EAA have tried to keep registration costs lower.  This will come with some added fundraising in order to balance the budget.  If you choose to donate to the program, there is a place to do that in the registration.  We are also actively looking for a jersey sponsor fo the 2025 season.  Please contact Anne Inzerello or Josh Todd if your business is interested.

The lacrosse season will begin in early March 2026, depending on weather.  The season runs from March through May.  Registration fees cover team league fees, practice field usage and lining, referees, team equipment (balls, goals, goalie equipment, etc.), and a JERSEY.

Practices will be twice a week with games on Sundays.  The practice location for 2026 is yet to be determined.  More details will be available closer to the start of the season.

Girls Lacrosse will have teams for 7th-8th grade, 5th-6th grade and an academy-style team for 3rd-4th girls (possibility of games based on Metro area numbers).

EAA Lacrosse teams will be competing in the Omaha Lacrosse Club (OLC) league and those games will primarily be on Sundays and are generally scheduled after 11am. (*There will be some Saturday game opportunities and possible optional travel for 5th-8th grade girls.) Games will take place at CHI Multi-sport Complex (I-80 and Giles).
