Note - Our Program is open to Youth Boys that are Hillsborough Residents.  We can make exceptions for boys in neighboring towns that do not have a lacrosse program and based on numerous factors including roster space that we have at that grade level.  Please note that for all new (did not play 2024 season with us) non-Hillsborough NJ players participation requires board approval.  You must reach out to  Hylboard@gmail.com for approval before proceeding with registration.  Failure to complete this step may result in a declined (and refunded) registration.

2025 Registration Incentives!!!!!!!

 

We are excited to offer 2 programs to support the growth of boys youth lacrosse in Hillsborough and help us drive larger enrollment:

 

New Player Referral/Recruitment Incentive:

Any family that refers/recruits a new player to Hillsborough Youth Lacrosse in the 2025 season will have the work bond waived!!

How it works:  New players must enter the name of the referring family when prompted during registration.  After the registration window closes a confirmation email will be sent confirming completion of 2025 season volunteer hours.  Work bond refunds will continue to be processed at one time at the end of the season.

 
New Player $100 registration Discount (grade 3-8):

All new players please email hylboard@gmail.com before completing your registration to receive a discount code that will provide you with a $100 discount for each player being registered.

 

Updates for 2025:

1. We have updated our parent and player expectations.  Please read these expectations in entirety before signing the waiver and completing registration.

2. If you are registering multiple children please email us before beginning the registration process for a discount code.  This will ensure that each family is only charged one family work bond.

3. If you are from an adjoining town that does not have a team at your grade level you must reach out and obtain board approval  before registering.
