Rocky Mountain Rattlers Leagues |
2026 overview
We’re excited to share that the Rattlers will be playing in the NOCO Fall Sixes League. The NOCO is the only league built specifically for Northern Colorado players and families, and it brings a whole new level of energy to youth lacrosse.
With a tour-style schedule, fast-paced Olympic Sixes format, and game-day environments that feel like pro events, this league is designed to give players more touches, more fun, and an unforgettable experience each weekend. We're proud to be part of a league that’s raising the bar and creating real connections between youth and high school lacrosse, and prioritizing the growth of the areas we serve.
The fall league consists of 6+ weeks of practice and five weeks of games. Each team will practice once per week starting in September and going through October with weekend games. Our Venom Training option for players who are interested in receiving advanced positional training in available once per week in addition to the fall season.
