Following assessments, Brigade boys play an 8-game spring season, competing against other clubs in the Northern Virginia Youth Lacrosse League (NVYLL).    Practices run once per week in March, moving to twice weekly in April.  Games run on weekends from the end of March through the weekend before memorial day.  Once games begin, teams will generally have 2 weeknight practices in addition to their league games. 

2026 NVYLL Season

• Practices Start: Week of March 1st
• Games: Weekends, March 22 - May 9
• Play-offs & Championship: May 16-17

New for 2026, NVYLL will introduce Sixes format to all 8U programs. By adopting USA Lacrosse Sixes, we can provide a more dynamic and inclusive experience that fosters skill development, encourages strategic thinking, and better prepares players for future competitive levels, all while maintaining the fun and excitement that draws young athletes to lacrosse.
