This Winter we are offering a fun, fast-paced opportunity for our players to compete in a 3v3 Tournament series we're calling the Rebels Cup!

We're forming 5-player teams to compete in a 7-week tournament of short-field, 3v3 games.  Players will practice stickwork, game scenarios and conditioning on Tuesdays, then compete 3-4 different 15 minute each week on Thursday nights. These games will be fast-paced - featuring three 5-minute periods, with short breaks between periods.

Players can register as individuals, in small groups or together as a 5-person team.  

We'll be keeping track of standings for teams each week and will end with a playoff and championship during our final week.  

This league is open to teams of boys & girls and will be a no-contact league, played with minimal gear (helmets & gloves only) and tennis balls - with the intention of developing stick skills, off-ball movement, field awareness and endurance - while still allowing teams to compete for the first REBELS CUP!

Q&A:

1. I don't have a group of 5 - can I register by myself, or with a partner?
   • Absolutely.  We'll build out our teams as soon as we can.  Some groups will want to play with friends, others will get grouped together in teams of 5 by division/grade level. When you register, you can select a team to join, let your friend know which team you signed up for and they can do the same. Space is limited though so we cannot guarantee the teams. 
2. Can we enter a full team of 5 to play together? 
   • Yes! Please email adam@ocrebelslacrosse.com to make those arrangements. Space will be limited! 
3. How much experience do I need to play?
   • This is a competitive league.  There will be players with several years of experience, as well as players with very limited lacrosse experience.  We're thinking this will be a great chance for players of all levels to gain competitive experience.
4. Is this boys or girls lacrosse rules?
   • Since this is a non-contact league on a small field, the rules will be a bit different.  We'll be playing with modified boys rules.  Since we typically run a boys program in the OCLA - all players will be required to wear a helmet and gloves, and training on Tuesdays will utilize mostly boys drills.  That said - we're hoping to build a girls program - so all are welcome!
5. What is the policy for refunds?
   • Since we'll be building out very small teams of 5, we're relying on all registered players to participate.  Therefore, we will not issue refunds for this league for any reason.
6. How will this league conform with social distancing guidelines?
   • Field capacity and team size is limited to ensure ample space on the field.
   • Training sessions (Tuesdays) will be primarily focused on individual skills & drills where players can be distanced.
   • Tourney sessions (Thursdays) will be a non-contact league with a maximum of 6 players on a small field at a time. 
7. What if there is another field closure due to Covid?
   • If we are forced to cancel this league prior to the start of the season (on 1/12), we will offer refunds or the option to defer your registration to a future season.  If we begin the season and are forced to close in the middle of the season, we will offer prorated refunds.
