Hi Revolution Parents,
The Board wanted to share some news with all of our awesome players and parents. Effective May 8th, we have formally separated from True Lacrosse. This was not a decision we made lightly, but after working with them for the last two years and combined with the recent organization changes, we have decided to refocus on efforts on growing local, recreational lacrosse with an emphasis on adding and retaining new players and providing our local High Schools great talent.
We wish True Lacrosse the best of luck growing Travel lacrosse in North Carolina. Over the last two years, True grew from a single local club to becoming a behemoth in the State of North Carolina – we want to continue to support them, along with the other club teams, by providing the best players possible to all our NC Club Teams for those that are interested. For those players not interested in travel, we want to provide training and challenging lacrosse here in our local community.
Why did we separate?
Thank you
Michael Smith (Board President)

Why did we separate?
- First and foremost, True Lacrosse is a nationally recognized travel lacrosse club. As a board, we agreed that Revolution had lost some of our focus local community and growing the program organically…including looking outside of our traditional Wake County area. Being our own club will also give us greater flexibility with our activities and budget, including reinvesting in our local lacrosse players.
- True has been a great partner, providing registration, coaches, uniforms for our club; but we want to bring all that back home to North Carolina – including better leveraging local talent and vendors.
- Our goal is to make this transition invisible and seamless to the players and parents.
- Stand by for our new colors and logos – but you will definitely see the old CYLC more prominently.
- We are still planning on having our regular summer box season starting in July.
- We will also have our Fall training sessions in September/October this fall.
- We will also have some new partnerships to announce coming soon!

Summer Box Lacrosse Registration is OPEN!!!
Happy Spring Parents and Players!!!
Get ready to get out of the blazing July sun and insane humidity and enjoy some Box Lacrosse this Summer.
What is Box Lacrosse you ask?: Box Lacrosse is indoor lacrosse played with 6 players - it is non-stop, high pace actions...and even better, it is played inside The Factory at Wake Forest, so its Air Conditioned!!!!
Why Play Box?:
1. The speed is faster than anything you would see outdoors. It makes playing outdoors seem like slow motion.
2. Playing in closer spaces means your stick skills have to be tighter but you have more opportunities to practice movement and shooting
3. Shots come hard and fast. Goalies get more shots in a shorter amount of time, giving them more opportunities to fine tune skills.
4. Great athletic endurance training! There is no sweat like box sweat!
Dates: Starts July 10th and Ends August 3rd - Exact dates will be published on our Box Lacrosse Page
