Spring Break
Spring Break will take place March 17- 28. Traditionally the league has scheduled games during the 2nd week of the break. There are indications that they are trying to eliminate games during Spring Break. If your family is planning a trip, and wishes to take the lacrosse schedule into consideration, it is recommended to plan travel for the first week. The coaches and board recognize that family time is a rare and important commodity. Players who are absent from practices/games during the Spring Break period will not be punished/demoted because of these absences.

Varsity and JV Teams
McQueen Boys Lacrosse fields a Varsity and, when possible, a JV Team as determined by player enrollment numbers. The decision to have a JV team or not is at the discretion of the coaches and board.
