LMML AGM

The Lower Mainland Masters Lacrosse League (LMML) had their inaugural season in 2011 and completed it with great success.  Four teams battled it out every week in a very competitive atmosphere. The feedback has been terrific and everything was positive.

LMML AGM was held last December in 2011. The executive will be communicating more in early January about the upcoming season but some dates to throw out now are... registration nights February 5 and February 19... season will get underway April 15 (we'll hold a pre-season drop-in sometime beforehand) and will wrap up by end of July.

If registrations warrent adding two more teams then the league will expand to six.

Here are the LMML rule changes for 2012 season:

PLAYER'S EQUIPMENT: No runner can play with a wooden stick and/or wooden shaft.

THE GAME: two twenty-minute running-time periods followed by one twenty-minute period, with the last five minutes being stop-time.

PENALTIES: Any unsportsmanlike penalty will result in a four minute penalty. Goalies must server their unsportsmanlike penalties, providing there is a backup goaltender. Also, the penalty shot for 2nd penalty infractions (in lieu of a player being sent to the penalty box) has been removed, teams penalised will now play 5-on-3 if need be.
