THE GOBLIN GAMES BEGAN IN 1998 MODELED AFTER THE TURKEYSHOOT BOYS TOURNAMENT WHICH ENDEAVORED TO GIVE PLAYERS A PLACE TO PLAY LACROSSE IN THE FALL., BECAUSE THEY LOVE THE GAME AND WANT TO GET BETTER. PLAYERS CAN PLAY IN THE JV AND VARSITY DIVISIONS IF THEIR COACHES INVITE THEM TO. A TALENTED 4th GRADER COULD PLAY WITH THEIR AGE GROUP AND PLAY UP IN THE 5/6 DIVISION. THE MODIFIED DIVISION IS THE ONLY SITUATION WHERE A PLAYER CAN "PLAY DOWN". MODIFIED IS 7th/8th GRADERS ACCORDING TO THE NYSPHSAA HOWEVER, I HAVE ALWAYS USED THE GOBLIN GAMES TO GIVE PLAYERS NEW TO LACROSSE A CHANCE TO PLAY WITHOUT THE PRESSURE OF THE SCHOLASTIC SEASON SO IF A COACH WANTS TO PUT A NOVICE 9th GRADER ON THEIR MODIFIED SQUAD THAT IS ALLOWED. IN ALL OTHER CASES PLAYERS SHOULD PLAY WITH THEIR AGE GROUP.
