2025 QMLA Recreational League Details

For more information about days of play for recreational league lacrosse, see below or go to Recreational League Days of Play

The QMLA recreational league program is designed to introduce and promote the sport of lacrosse in a fun, friendly and engaging environment, offering youth in Quinte the opportunity to play Canada’s National Summer Sport.

This program allows all players to practice and play against players in their own age division and skill level.  Box Lacrosse recreational league is open to boys and girls age 3-12 (birth years 2013-2022).

Note that we will not be offering recreational play for boys U15 and U17 boys and girls.  Please see our competitive program for more information on lacrosse for these ages.

Recreational program will begin April 11th.  Players will receive 4 hours development from experienced instructors before team practices and games begin on April 25th.  Teams will be on the floor twice each week, with one practice and one game.

Competitive (rep) lacrosse is available from U7 to U17 pending interest.  Competitive players in U9-U13 may choose to participate in the local league as well with coach permission (fees must be paid for both).  If you are interested in playing in our competitive club program, please click  here for more information.

QMLA partners with our neighbouring associations in Tyendinaga and Kingston to provide the best experience for our players.  We are planning 2 fun days where our teams will play against each other.

Additionally, if we have enough interest and numbers, we can try to accommodate practices and games in other arenas (i.e. Trenton, Stirling, Picton, etc) for players local to those communities.  Another reason to get your friends out and play together while trying a new sport!  Players will be placed on a team based on geography unless otherwise requested or there is no space available.

All QMLA divisions are co-ed up to U13 unless specified otherwise.
