Valley Lacrosse 2020

Waubonsie/Metea Valley Women’s Lacrosse was founded in 2009 by 4 student-athletes and 1 coach, who were inspired by an undying love for the game of lacrosse.

It took A LOT of dedication to transform a small high school club team, who barely fielded a full squad, to a perennial playoff contender. But now… Valley Women’s Lacrosse is now entering our THIRD season as a sanctioned Varsity sport with nearly 50 student-athletes participating… But we still need YOUR help!!

As a newer varsity program, our athletes still encounter many expenses that prevent access to this great team sport. For the 2020 season, DISTRICT 204 REQUIRES each Lacrosse athlete to pay $527 to participate. AND this doesn’t even include some of the individual costs like the girls’ goggles, cleats, and sticks!!

We hope that you can help us!

As one of the fastest growing sports —_in the last four years, 15 new collegiate programs have started within 300 miles of District 204, _and with just over 25% increase in participation in Illinois high schools in the last decade—we hope to grow the participation at Waubonsie and Metea high schools.

How can you help?

Please Pledge whatever you can! We ask ANY sum of GIFT. Our initial goal is $20,000, or ~$500 per player. YOUR GIFT will help LACROSSE PLAYERS get on the same “field” as other established District 204 spring sport participants, who pay from only $0-$200 for their sports.

THE ATHLETE’S PLEDGE TO YOU: 100% of ALL GIFTS collected through this campaign will go to benefitting YOUR named athlete in the form of her participation fees. THIS IS STRICTLY A GIFT TO HELP MORE KIDS PARTICIPATE AND NOT, IN ANY WAY, AN AWARD FOR PLAY. YOUR PLEDGE is credited to your named player first, offsetting some of the burden of her participation fee; then, any surplus of pledges are applied to a general fund for the benefit of ALL PARTICIPANTS by helping provide team equipment, rental space, and cold weather gear… and believe us, it’s BRRRR COLD March 18th, which is the first game of the 2020 season!!

PLUS…When you gift, you will become part of our “FAN” list, having your name listed–-or anonymously posted, if requested – on our website - Valley. During the season you will receive a “thank you” card signed by your player and her team!

Your generosity will greatly help build our program by providing assistance to the player AND her team!!

Thank you and…

GO VALLEY!!!
