Welcome to the Mid Penn!

The Mid Penn Youth Lacrosse Association was created to promote uniformity and to elevate the game of lacrosse in Dauphin and Cumberland Counties. It has since expanded to include teams from Centre and York Counties as well.

The Mid Penn has 13 members and serves over 600 kids every spring by providing them with a competitive, instructional, and fun lacrosse experience.


The Bellefonte Lacrosse organization was happy to host an MPYLA game in Rogers Stadium on Mother's Day for the first time.

Thanks to the Bellefonte organization and their Booster Club for providing a team meal after the game!
