| The SP 5/6th grade team went down to the True Lacrosse Mid season Youth tourney last weekend (May 9/10) and went 3-3 against some of the Illinois areas best youth lacrosse teams. All of the teams in the tourney are in the Illinois Youth Lacrosse Association, which is managed and run by Jake Deane and Mike Gabel of True Lacrosse and the Chicago Machine.
After an 8-7 loss to Kenilworth in the opening game of the tourney, the Fighting Cardinals posted deciive 10-1, and 13-3 victories over The Orland Park Chiefs and the Chicago Youth Lacrosse teams respectively. SP Goalie Jordan 'Beans' CeCe posted 16 saves on 19 shots vs CYL.
This brought on a last game of the day match between SP and the Fox Valley Select team (FV is a select team that is playing in the U11 Nationals in Baltimore this year). The Cards were tied at halftime and only down by 2 goals, 7-5, at the 9:14 mark of the second half, but ran out of gas after playing in their fourth game of the day. The final was 15-5.
Sunday brought another tough loss to the Western Springs Select team. The boys (and Girls) from SP fought hard and kept it to a one goal game with about 5 minutes left in the game the score was tied 3-3, then WS potted a couple of quick ones and then it was over. The Boys from SP went down 8-3.
Another match against the Chiefs for 4th place ended in a 5-2 score. SP put 36 shots on the Chiefs goalie including 3 end to end rushes by Long pole Defenseman Jacob Kanak. Kanak was able to bury the last one to seal the deal for SP.
All in all a really great showing for the kids of SP. | |

Isn't it time to revisit the no check rule for our 5/6 age groups. We play tackle football in 4th grade I believe. | |

Unless it's changed in the past few years it's the PeeWee age group when checking becomes legal.I think that's 6th grade. | |

Thanks Butters, the names/grade/age classifications is Youth Hockey have always just confused me. Either way, we are talkign 10-11 years old. | |
