Vikings Spring
The Central Florida Vikings, aka the Vikings Lacrosse team, is dedicated to growing lacrosse in East Orlando. Our mission is to teach young men and women various life skills through lacrosse. Over the past 20 years, the Central Florida Vikings coaching staff has trained some of the top players in the Orlando area. Many of these individuals went on to play lacrosse at the collegiate level and positively affect their communities.
Please review the below content for basic information regarding our program. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to us!
Ages
Lacrosse is a great sport for ages 5+. Lacrosse teaches players several different fundamental athletic abilities including footwork, teamwork, communication, and hand eye coordination skills to name a few.
Depending on age and grade level, players will be placed onto specific teams that will help keep players safe and appropriately develop their skills.
When
Our program has four distinct seasons:
- Spring: February - April
- Summer: May - June
- Fall: September - Early November
- Winter: December - January
The 2025 Spring Season will be dedicated to teaching players stick skills and teamwork. Players will get to play a backyard style of lacrosse called "Speed Lacrosse". In this version of the game players do not need any equipment except the padded stick that will be included in registration.
*Please note that each season may have different practice dates and times as well as a different season cost.
Program Levels
Depending on player age and grade level, they will be placed in one of the following programs:
- 8u: Pre-K - 2nd grade
- 10u: 3rd - 4th grade
- 12u: 5th - 6th grade
- 14u: 7th - 8th grade
- HS: 9th grade - 12th grade
*Please note that 8th graders will have the opportunity to play up with the HS program depending on skill, size, and comfort level.
Practices
Depending on your players age, practices will be held once or twice per week at Freedom Park in Eastwood.
Practice times and dates will depend on team level.
*Weather can often interfere with our practices, if this is the case we will do our best to reschedule a cancelled practice if the fields are available.
Games
As previously mentioned the 2025 Spring season will be dedicated to a backyard style of lacrosse called "Speed Lacrosse". It is a fun and quick style of lacrosse that allows players of all ages to participate. In true backyard style players will be placed on random teams each "game" and allowed to play. This version of lacrosse also allows boys and girls players to play on the same field at the same time.
- Games will be played in an intersquad setting depending on age.
