Safety Message from DYLax
by posted 06/17/2008



Emergency Contact Information


For the most immediate connection to 911 assistance from your cell phone, in case of emergency, DYLax suggests that all families and individuals participating in Darien Youth Lacrosse and other activities, please program the following number into your cell phone ASAP for the future:
#662-5300

When dialed from a cell, this number connects directly to a Darien dispatcher and will help avoid unncessary delays, when seeking assistance.  Otherwise, dialing "911" from a cell may rout a call to a central dispatcher who is located outside of this local area.

Coaches Continuing Education
by posted 05/20/2008

- Coaches’ Continuing Education -

 

The “Positive Coaches Alliance workshop drew 75+ coaches who sharpened up both game knowledge and skills that will help Darien continue to turn out champions!

(See a PDF summary under ‘documents’) 

Now, more than 125 youth coaches have been USL-registered by DYLax for ‘08. 

 

For those interested in further developing their skills, here are a few options for the future:

 

Level I training – an online foundation tutorial which includes video, resources and certification assessment. 

This can help master knowledge of lacrosse, make practices more effective, provide innovative communications and fine tune the ability to correct errors …. All of which can move you to the next level in coaching ….

 

Typically a $25 fee, DYLax has a limited supply of free ‘coupon codes,’ for Level I.  If interested, please send an e-mail to to get this set-up.  The course can be completed at your convenience.  You can also access the course directly online.

 

For those coaches who are certified Level I, Level II instruction is now available online through USL for a small fee, to build upon the foundation concepts.

 

Check www.uslacrosse.org/CEP for more details.
