In Week 2 of the Atlanta Lacrosse League we saw the Red Dragons get their first win and also saw two overtime games! It was another great week of Lacrosse and we can’t wait to get back on the field on July 12th. Just a reminder we are OFF THIS WEEK to celebrate the Fourth of July. The results from last weeks games are posted on our SCHEDULES page and our STANDINGS are updated.
Seeing everyone on the field this weekend was a awesome experience, we thought just two weeks prior that we wouldn’t even have a season. After this weekend I did want to take a moment to remind you that COVID19 is still a threat and a potentially deadly virus. Over the last week Georgia has seen a dramatic increase in COVID cases. With us being in such close proximity playing sports I want to remind you on the importance of social distancing and that the CDC does recommend wearing a face-covering while out in public. While I do not expect you to wear them under your helmet, wearing them on the sidelines and while talking to friends is a good way to protect yourself. We offer hand sanitizer by our tent and recommend using it when needed.
To ensure we are providing as much information as we can around the virus, here is the official statement from the CDC on what guidelines to follow to help protect yourself form the virus:
“CDC continues to study the spread and effects of the novel coronavirus across the United States. We now know from recent studies that a significant portion of individuals with coronavirus lack symptoms (“asymptomatic”) and that even those who eventually develop symptoms (“pre-symptomatic”) can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms. This means that the virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity—for example, speaking, coughing, or sneezing—even if those people are not exhibiting symptoms. In light of this new evidence, CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.
It is critical to emphasize that maintaining 6-feet social distancing remains important to slowing the spread of the virus. CDC is additionally advising the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure.”
Again we are not requiring the use of face coverings, but we highly recommend using them when you are not playing. We want everyone to stay safe & healthy and following these guidelines will help.
Going forward we will remind you of the following:
THANKS FOR AN AWESOME FIRST WEEK! I know that it was a bit hectic getting everything ready for Week 1, but we were very happy with how all the games turned out. We have published the scores from last week and have posted the schedule this week on TeamSnap and our Website. We will be building the schedule for the rest of the season over the next two days so please be patient.
Division Changes: Traditionally we have had our Open 18+ and Masters 32+ divisions, however we are going to tweak that going forward. The Open Division is now Men’s Elite (“A”) and the Masters Division is now Men’s Legends (“B”). With only three teams in the Legends division we are dropping the hard 32+ age requirement to help us better balance the players. The Legends teams will still play teams from Elite, but each division will have their own play-offs & Championships.
Fields: While we loved playing at Kell HS, we have officially solidified using North Park in Alpharetta the rest of the season.
Roster Changes: The Men’s Legends will see some players moved around to ensure more playing time & better balance of positions. We will notify you directly if you are being moved.
Last Minute Sign Ups: We still have a few spots left. We do not allow drop-ins, but your friends can sign up for the rest of the season. Have them visit the registration page to sign up and we will place them your roster.
Schedule for Sunday June 28th:
