ABOUT US

The Lexington Youth Lacrosse Association is based in Lexington, Kentucky. An affiliate of US Lacrosse working in conjunction with the Kentucky Lacrosse Association, the mission of the organization is to provide support for programs in the bluegrass and Lexington area.

The LYLA Board consists of coaches, officials, parents, and advocates of lacrosse and the sport's development in the Lexington area. All Lexington area head coaches who maintain membership in US Lacrosse are considered members of the Board of Directors. As well, there is one parent representative for each team. The Executive Committee of the Board consists of Melonie Graves (President), Tim Yessin (Head Official Assignor), Peter Gilbert, Terry Justice, Dave Kaetzal, Kevin Kelly, Bill Martin, Drew Nardiello, Mark Sievers, and Kathy Waldman. For more information on the governance of LYLA, please read the Lexington Youth Lacrosse Association bylaws.

The sport of lacrosse has grown tremendously in the past few years, and our organization plays an integral role supporting youth, middle school, and high school programs. We provide resources for coaches, parents, players, clubs, and schools. If you or your program need support, please feel free to contact us through the web master at tadams@thelexingtonschool.org.
