The culmination of the YLA season every year means 2 things: Easter is here, and its time for the Cactus Cup! This trophy is awarded to the 14U division winners of the YLA season every year on the final weekend of the season. After 15 years of the trophy making its way around the valley to various clubs, it has finally returned to the East Valley!

After an impressive season, beginning with winning the Robin Hood Skirmish in February, the Bulls secured a victory over Scottsdale United in the semi-finals, then the Ahwatukee Lightning in the championship game!

 

Congratulations to the East Valley Bulls on their phenomenal season, and to the return of the Cactus Cup to the East Valley! Best of luck to our 8th graders as they move on to play high school lacrosse:
