Our practices are held at indoor and outdoor facilities in Cherry Hill, NJ and we plan on continuing to do so as long as the times are available throughout the year. Sunday morning practices are the norm in the Fall, Winter, Spring, and early Summer. We may occasionally have weeknight practices in the Fall and will certainly have them in June and July.   

*Locations and dates are subject to change based on availability.

Alternates attend all practices, get a uniform and there is a chance they may be offered the opportunity to attend one or more tournaments. They play at a reduced cost initially and then pay per tournament when asked. If the practice player is asked to play in all tournaments, the total cost will equal that of a full rostered player. Alternates are required to pay the deposit in order to hold their spot on the team.

All All American Aim athletes and coaches are required to be members of USA Lacrosse to supplement personal insurance policies. All tournaments require that athletes have this coverage.

All American Aim’s mission is to compete at the highest level against the best competition while fostering the growth of each athlete in our program. We take a team approach to the club atmosphere and believe that playing with and for each other allows for maximum success. Each season, AIM attends different tournaments with a wide variety of competition levels. Some tournaments are set up as showcase tournaments and some are championship format. At these more competitive tournaments, it benefits the entire All American Aim program for the teams to perform well. In those situations, playing time could be determined with the focus on winning. We do not guarantee equal playing time.

Players are not entitled to team roster spots from one year to the next. Tryout performance, while major, is only one step in the evaluation process. Players are constantly being evaluated. Please note that AIM reserves the right to move players back and forth between alternate statue, the Stars and Stripes team and the “grad year” team. If a team has thirteen or less players committed, it is possible for that team to be disbanded due to low numbers.  It is also possible that players could be added after an evaluation to a team with a low roster size at a later date.

All athletes, coaches and minors participating in any sporting event should report to Katie Lee, AIM Director, any signs or symptoms of a concussion observed in themselves or others.

Players involved in the All American Aim Team Program are prohibited from playing for another privately run "travel" lacrosse club team. 

The choice to play for another club while being a current member of All American Aim will be viewed as not giving a full commitment to All American Aim. 

All American Aim’s mission is to compete at the highest level against the best competition while fostering the growth of each athlete in our program. It is important to us that we create a positive, character-building experience for our athletes but that is not something we can do on our own. For that to be possible, we need parents, players and fans to understand and commit to our program's philosophies and beliefs. We take a team approach to the club atmosphere and believe that playing with and for each other allows for maximum success. 

Good sportsmanship is expected at all AIM functions, including but not limited tournaments and practices. Although competition may become intense, we expect our participants to always maintain good sportsmanship. As a participant in any AIM function, we ask the players, fans & parents to: 

• Respect the game, play fairly, and follow all rules and policies, including wearing all required uniforms and equipment 
  
• Accept the decisions of the game officials with good grace and respect. 
  
• Demonstrate positive body language and positive communications both while playing and while on the sidelines before, during, and after games, win or lose. 
  
•  Encourage good sportsmanship of my teammates and assist in maintaining a respectful environment for all participants, including opposing teams, officials, monitors, or facilitators and treat all players and game officials. 
  
• We do not tolerate or encourage "sideline coaching" from parents and fans. Parents are expected to respect the authority and knowledge of our coaches and should not interfere in the training and coaching process. Our coaching staff implements a game plan that we share with the athletes and it is important that players stick to the plan. Sideline coaching can be confusing and distracting to the athletes.  

All American Aim reserves the right to terminate a player at any time if the player, family or parent is deemed by the Aim staff to be in violation of our All American Aim policies.
