The Cranbrook Outlaws box lacrosse program is already in full-swing and they are expecting 2017 to be one of their best and most enjoyable seasons yet.

The Outlaws hit the court on March 27 for practice and are busy preparing for a slew of tournaments over the summer.

The program has over 125 players spread over six age divisions, and they practice two times a weeks developing their skills and “most importantly having fun while playing Canada’s national summer sport.”

In addition to two home tournaments, the Outlaws will go on the road several times which the association believes ensures a tight group.

“All players attend the same tournaments on the same weekends which helps create a family-like bond with all the kids,” a representative for the Outlaws said. “Families and teammates from each division are simply one big team and are there to support each other. It really helps boost the team spirit.”
