Fairport Boys Lacrosse Families,
I hope you all are doing well and enjoying the last few weeks of Summer. We are very excited to open up registration for the 1st year of the Red Raider Lacrosse Club. We plan to open registration on Tuesday September 8, 2020. If for some reason you didn’t receive my email a few weeks back introducing the Red Raider Lacrosse Club, LLC I have included it below. We have added 2 more items that will be included in this years membership fee.
1. The Red Raider Lacrosse Fall Training sessions are included in this years membership fee. This is a $110.00 value.
2. We have been able to get Under Armour to give us 35-40% off on there training gear and on any uniforms for the Red Raider Lacrosse Club, LLC in the next 2 years. This will provide us the opportunity to pass these great savings onto our Club Members ONLY in a online clothing store. If an items retail cost is $70 then our cost will be about $42 without any logo. Please keep in mind that each item will have a small fee for the logo and you would be responsible for Tax and shipping costs on your order.
We cannot wait to get this program running. We are all looking forward to working with our boys again this Fall.
Respectfully,
Coach Torrelli and the Red Raider Lacrosse Club Coaches
Fairport Red Raider Lacrosse Club, LLC: CARE, QUALITY and VALUE
Dear Lacrosse Families,
We hope everyone is staying safe and healthy during these very uncertain times. As we previously stated in our email three weeks ago, we are implementing the Red Raider Lacrosse Club. We are committed to providing our families and athletes with a quality product to further develop their skills and promote the love of lacrosse. An important aspect of our club is value. Our goal is to bring our student athletes together in the off season and provide an affordable alternative to outside clubs while providing quality coaching and important team connections. The Red Raider Lacrosse Club will provides competitive teams, where the boys get to play with their school teammates and best friends.
The coaching staff has a personal interest in helping the boys both improve their game on the field, and guide them throughout their teenage years off the field as Fairport student athletes. One of our major goals is to build chemistry amongst our boys on and off the field. The Red Raider Lacrosse Club will run from June 1 to May 31 each year. This program is available for all boys’ grades 7th – 12th based on their grade as of September 1. Due to Covid-19 we were NOT able to start the program this summer. As a result, this program will be available to all players in Grades 7th – 12th from October 1, 2020 – May 31, 2021. Hopefully we will be able to start our first full year of the Red Raider Lacrosse Club in June 2021. We will offer a competitive lacrosse experience, while enjoying a great experience with friends and family throughout the school year and in the summer.
During the summer, we will be participating in 4-5 tournaments throughout June, July and August with the possibility of a summer lacrosse league as well. We know many of you are a part of a club lacrosse team, which can often raise conflicts. Being that the Red Raider Lacrosse Club is only for Fairport student athletes, we want all the boys involved throughout the summer months to continue building our program. If the conflicts of tournaments is a concern of yours, please let me know so we can discuss it further.
As the cost of outside clubs, including travel expenses, continues to rise, we believe that we have come up with a very affordable cost to be a part of the Red Raider Lacrosse Club. Unlike other club programs where you have to pay $1,000 or more, we have come up with a membership fee only for the year (see below). All of our other programs are A-La-Carte. Why are we doing it this way? We feel that by ONLY doing a membership fee, everyone will not feel the pressure to make every single experience that we offer. Let’s be honest, as a father, when I pay for something for my sons, I expect them to attend or they are wasting my money if they don’t go. I know WE ALL have experienced this issue. When you are paying $1000 or more up front, we all want value for what we are paying for. If you are only getting to half of the programs, are you getting the most for your money? This is why we are doing just a membership fee. All of our other programs will be A-La-Carte so that way if you can’t attend a program, then there will be NO stress about missing something. Please understand that we are looking for our lacrosse players to have BALANCE. We want our student athletes to participate in other sports, be involved in school activities, focus on getting the best grades possible, and participate in community service.
The goals of the Red Raider Lacrosse Club are simple:
● Provide an opportunity for our Fairport players to play together and develop a chemistry to foster a love for the game because we CARE.
● Provide a QUALITY lacrosse opportunity for our Fairport players to be coached by passionate, experienced coaches committed to supporting our student athletes on and off the field. While still providing a competitive atmosphere/teams.
● To provide our Fairport families with a VALUE enabling ALL players to have an opportunity to participate in additional lacrosse experiences.
With the uncertainty of Covid-19 this school year (2020 – 2021) we will be officially starting the Red Raider Lacrosse Club October 1, 2020. We will be providing a reduced membership fee for this year October 1, 2020 – May 31, 2021 along with some adjustments in what we will be including in this year’s membership fee. We hope that our first full year will start June 1, 2021 – May 31, 2022.
We look forward to serving our families and student athletes through our Red Raider Lacrosse Club in the future. Please reach out if you have any questions.
Respectfully,
Coach Torrelli and the Red Raiders Lacrosse Club Coaches
