Lax-4-Life 2020 Season Update
First and foremost, we would like to thank you for your continued support of Lax-4-Life and those of you who had signed up for the 2020 lacrosse season. In light of the recent spring season cancellations, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we wanted to still make the most of what we can.
On Thursday, April 16th in conjunction with ‘National Semicolon Day’, Lax-4-Life will be hosting a social media challenge on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook to showcase all the teams, players, and coaches who are a part of our Lax-4-Life family. On a day where the world celebrates a day for mental health awareness, we are asking all individuals who have a Lax-4-Life shirt (current season or any of our past 10 years) to post a selfie on any social media platform story or post wearing their shirts and tag @LAX4LIFE_inc_ along with the caption: “In honor of National Semicolon Day, I play for….” AND/OR #WhoIPlayFor in it! With hopes of encouraging our athletes to remember friends and family who have been affected by suicide.
REMEMBER YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
There are lot of things going on in the world right now the COVID-19 pandemic, seasons cancelled, online classes it can be a lot to handle. Please do not be afraid to reach out and ask for help if needed.
