If you or your child are an U10, U12, or U14 boy or an U11, U13, or U15 girl who just loves lacrosse, we’d love you to come along to the skills festival held at the Manchester Regional Arena.

The festival is a great opportunity for the next generation of lacrosse player to play the Olympic version of the game on the very pitch The Fly athletes will play on during the 2025 edition of The Fly.
