This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


This lacrosse program is designed to introduce the basic skills and help players understand the rules and style of the game. Coaches will use fun games to teach participants the fundamentals including scooping ground balls, throwing, catching, cradling, shooting, and defending. Each week will include a practice portion to help skill development as well as modified, non-competitive game. Checking will not be allowed and there will be zero physical contact. Face goggles, helmets, and pads will not be necessary. Coaches will explain there are slight differences in competitive girl’s lacrosse and boy’s lacrosse. However all basic skills are taught the same except coaches will teach the difference in cradling. Boy’s sticks and softer lacrosse balls will be used for this program. Children are welcome to bring their own sticks if they would like.

* Adjustments and discounts will be applied during checkout if applicable. *
