Incarnate Word (IW) and St. Monica (SM) are glad to announce merging of our Lacrosse program into a single program.  For the last 2 years kids from St. Monica and Incarnate Word played lacrosse in St. Louis Youth Lacrosse Association known as SLYLA. Under SM banner the two parishes sponsored a Y12 Boys’ team, Y12 Girls’ team and Y14 Girls’ team. The Y14 Girls’ team was comprised of all 8^th grade students mainly from IW. The Y14 Girls’ team went undefeated by winning the championship game against MICDS. IW/SM is looking to rebuild and keep parish sponsor lacrosse alive in West County. The program is offered to 5^th and 6^th grade for both boys and girls plus 7^th and 8^th grade girls. The program will accept 4^th graders girls after discussion with the parents.

SM has lacrosse equipment that can be rented for a very nominal fee.

Last Year SLYLA games were played at Chesterfield Valley Athletic Complex (CVAC), Y12 boys and Y12 girls played on Saturday and Y14 girls played on Sunday. The girls practice on Wednesday evening and Boys on Thursday at Saint Monica.

IW/SM will pay for all USA Lacrosse registration fee for non-club lacrosse players.
