Sisters lacrosse team to host jamboree

The Sisters Boys Lacrosse Club will host a lacrosse jamboree at Sisters High School on Saturday, May 7, from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Players from Lake Oswego, Lakeridge, Churchill and Roseburg high schools will participate.

These teams are playing their games in Sisters in an effort to help spread the sport of lacrosse to Central Oregon, according to Sisters coach Bill Rexford.

All teams will be donating equipment to Sisters Lacrosse.

Currently Central Oregon has two high school lacrosse clubs — Sisters and Redmond. Lacrosse has been in the high schools in the Portland area since 1992 and now has varsity programs at 33 high schools, Rexford reported.

The Sisters team will play a modified JV schedule this year and will play a full schedule next spring.
