Deep Run Thunder Lacrosse is a volunteer youth organization committed to providing quality coaching, in a fun yet competitive environment and is open to boys in grades 3 through 8. The mission of Deep Run Lacrosse is to provide young boys the opportunity to learn the sport of lacrosse, in a Positive Coaching Alliance environment, and prepare them for success at the high school level and beyond. Registration occurs in January) for the Spring Season. Fall lacrosse is sometimes offered as well.
Our program is broken down first by grade level, then by skill level. We are part of the South Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Lacrosse Association (SEPYLA) and compete in league games in grades 3-4 (C level), 5/6 (B level), and 7/8 (A level). Each level has sub-divisions based on skill level to ensure that the boys are playing against similar competition.
Registration occurs in January for the Spring season.
About SEPYLA
Six boy's lacrosse organizations formed SEPYLA in 1987 to encourage the growth of the sport at the youth level and ultimately to develop stronger high school programs in the greater Philadelphia region.
Today, almost 30 years later, SEPYLA has over nearly 40 member organizations and has spawned youth leagues in Chester County, Lehigh County and New Jersey. The high school programs with players from SEPYLA’s members rank among the most competitive in the nation.
Since its inception, SEPYLA has focused on the creation of community-based programs generally consistent with school district boundaries. SEPYLA has and continues to believe that teams will only improve if they play the best competition available. Consequently, SEPYLA’s rules encouraged members to field teams in its most competitive divisions and discouraged players from playing outside their community in order to provide a competitive schedule for its member organizations and ultimately spread and improve our great game. At the same time, however, SEPYLA recognizes that unique circumstances sometimes warrant exceptions if such circumstances creates an opportunity to play lacrosse where one would not otherwise exist.
