Turkey Weekend Wall Ball Challenge: November 26 to 29
SALA is kicking off the off-season with our first Wall Ball Challenge, and we want to see everyone get some reps in over the holiday weekend.
How to enter (Thursday, November 26 through Sunday, November 29):
Follow us on Instagram at @stillwateryouthlacrosse.
Post a photo or video of your player doing wall ball or playing catch.
In the caption, tell us your favorite Thanksgiving side dish and add #SALATurkeyWallBall.
Tag @stillwateryouthlacrosse in the caption and on the photo. Keep the post public, or share it to your Story and mention us, so we can see it.
Bonus: wear your Pony red and black or your SALA lacrosse gear!
Prize: One winner, chosen at random from all entries, will receive a $5 ES Lacrosse gift card. We will announce the winner on Monday, November 30.
Rules and permission:
Players under 13 should have a parent or guardian post the entry from the parent’s account, since Instagram requires users to be 13 or older.
By tagging SALA, you give us permission to repost your photo or video on SALA social media and our website.
Please use first names only. Do not include last names, schools, or addresses in posts.
Play safe. Use a solid wall with permission, away from windows, cars, and people.
The challenge is open to all SALA players, siblings, and families. This challenge is not sponsored by or affiliated with Instagram.
Not sure where to start? Stand about five yards from a wall and work through these with both hands: strong-hand and off-hand catch and throw, quick sticks, catch and switch, cross-hand, one-hand cradle catches, and ground balls off the wall. New to lacrosse or no wall at home? Play catch with a parent, sibling, or teammate. Start close, and back up a step every ten catches.
About ten minutes a day adds up to big gains by spring. Registration for the 2027 season opens December 1.
Happy Thanksgiving from the SALA Board!
