Steamboat Springs — Lacrosse fans, and especially those of Steamboat lacrosse, will have plenty to watch this weekend.
Steamboat Youth Lacrosse will host the sixth annual Steamboat Classic Lacrosse Tournament on Saturday and Sunday.
The tournament brings 35 teams from across the state and Wyoming to compete in fifth, sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade tournaments.
The fifth-, sixth- and seventh-grade games will be played at Emerald Park. The eighth-grade games will be played at Emerald Park and Gardner Field.
Steamboat will field a fifth-grade team, two sixth-grade teams, a seventh-grade team and two eighth-grade teams.
Steamboat Youth Lacrosse Director Neill Redfern has designed the schedule so a Steamboat team always will be playing.
“A Steamboat team is playing all day, every day,” Redfern said, noting the Steamboat teams will play at least 24 games in two days. “If you want to watch a Steamboat team and don’t care about age or grade, you’ll have a chance from 9 (a.m.) until 6 (p.m.) Saturday and 8 (a.m.) until 5 (p.m.) Sunday.”
