Dear Students,
We are thrilled to announce upcoming Women’s Lacrosse tryouts! Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the game, we welcome individuals with diverse athletic backgrounds who are eager to embrace the spirit of team sports at Castleton.
No prior knowledge of lacrosse is required! What matters most is your enthusiasm, athleticism, and a willingness to learn. Our team values camaraderie and sportsmanship, making it a fantastic environment for anyone looking to be part of a dynamic and supportive community.
Positions available include Offense and Defense. Here’s a brief overview of each role:
Offense: Offense is the driving force of our team, responsible for scoring goals. Players in this role showcase agility, speed, and strategic thinking to outmaneuver opponents and capitalize on scoring opportunities. Offense includes attack and midfield.
Defense: Defense is the backbone of our team, focused on preventing the opposing team from scoring. Defensive players use their strength, positioning, and communication skills to thwart attacks and create turnovers, crucial for maintaining control of the game.
Regardless of your background, we encourage you to come and try out. This is a chance to discover the growing game of women’s lacrosse, build lasting friendships, and contribute to the success of our team.
If you’re interested in trying out, please reach out to Coach Ferraro (bella.ferraro@vermontstate.edu) or Coach Pearce (cmp00487@vermontstate.edu). The tryout will be a basic measure of comfort and athletic skill while prioritizing general interest in playing the sport.
