Welcome to the Vienna Youth, Inc. (VYI) Lacrosse home page. VYI Lacrosse participates in the Northern Virginia Youth Lacrosse League (NVYLL). The purpose of the NVYLL is to provide the youth residing within the geographical boundaries of Northern Virginia a healthful, enjoyable leisure time activity and as a corollary to develop qualities that may help them in later life, sportsmanship, team play, and integrity.
All players must be registered in order to attend these tryouts. All interested players should attend BOTH open tryout sessions for their respective age/grade division. Those players who are chosen for call backs and (therefore) should return for the next call back session will be contacted directly by the coaches.
The weather is always a challenge this time of year. Any cancellations/changes to this published schedule will be reported on our home page.
