Out of town players
The Bedford Cannons program is open to all residents of Bedford. In the event your town does not offer a lacrosse program at your desired age group, there is potentially an opportunity to play with the Bedford Cannons. However, please keep in mind, that this opportunity is only available if your current town doesn't offer a lacrosse program at your desired age group and is subject to the status of our registration numbers. Should you have any questions, please reach out to registrar@bedfordcannons.org.
Register for Spring 2025
If you intend on playing Cannons in Spring 2025, please don't wait to register. It's almost a certainty that we'll need to limit roster size this season as we've done in years past. We are one of NH's largest lacrosse organizations, and we often have to limit registrations to ensure we can provide the best experience to our athletes. If you plan on playing, don't wait to register! We cannot guarantee your roster spot if you do not register before February 1, 2025.

Boys and Girls Grades 7-8
We are excited that Lurgio will once again be offering lacrosse as a school sport for both Boys and Girls this Spring.
Keeping with the goal of our program to offer lacrosse to any Bedford child who wishes to play, our plan is to offer a full program on both the boys and the girls side at this age group. Based on feedback from prior years, we hope to coordinate with the school programs and to reduce some of the practice burden during the week while still giving the kids an opportunity to represent Bedford on the lacrosse field on the weekends. Come the Spring, should our registration numbers not support a team at this age group, we will offer partial refunds for the Spring portion of our program offering.
Indoor Skills Sessions
We view our indoor skills sessions as a huge differentiator between the Cannons and other programs, and value the 'head start' our athletes get by attending.
Please see below for important notes around this year's indoor skills sessions:
- Indoor skills sessions are included in the tuition, however only athletes who have registered may attend. Full equipment is required for indoor skills.
- Skills will be run on Tuesdays and Wednesdays starting January 21st through the first week of April at the NH Sportsplex in Bedford NH.
- NEW in 2025: Little laxers will have indoor practice sessions on Wednesday evenings from 6-7pm.
- Days, times, and all details related to the Indoor Skills can be found here: https://www.bedfordcannons.org/news_article/show/849095
Team Evaluations and Placements
A quick note about evaluations - when it comes to tryouts for the Cannons, we do NOT "cut" players. Our goal is to provide a fun environment for athletes in Bedford to learn the game of lacrosse. Our evaluations are designed to ensure that players are placed on the teams that will best promote their development.
Not all age groups will need to have an evaluation done. As our registration process progresses, the board will determine which age groups and genders will require an evaluation process for team placement.
In addition to our regularly scheduled indoor skills nights, we have also reserved time on both Friday, February 7 and Friday, February 14 at the NH Sportsplex. This was done so that we can offer additional schedule flexibility for each athlete to be evaluated, should this be required. More details on evaluation days and times will be made available in January.
Volunteers Needed!
Our program is run entirely by volunteers. We are proud to be one of the largest town lacrosse programs in the state of New Hampshire and we are continuing to grow. As we continue to grow as a program, our need for more volunteers in our community continues to grow as well. We are always in search of coaches at all age levels. During our registration process, please consider becoming involved in our program. Should you have any questions, please reach out to president@bedfordcannons.org
Game Shorts and Shooter Shirts
As in years past, included in the registration fee, each athlete receives one shooter shirt. During registration, we collect the data on shirt sizes and will distribute the shirts at the beginning of the Spring season.
NEW FOR 2025: We will also be providing every athlete with game shorts for you to keep. We will collect the size information for your athlete during registration and those shorts will be distributed at the beginning of the Spring season.
