About:
Our Boys and Girls Lacrosse teams volunteer throughout our spring season with our youth lacrosse programs. To kick off our youth season we hold try lacrosse clinics in March in conjunction with your Elementary schools doing lacrosse units in school to allow students who are interested in lacrosse the opportunity to try playing.
We also do a first stick program for players wanting to play. Families and players donate sticks they don’t use anymore and our youth program provides stringing for the sticks done by our players and one of our varsity assistant coaches and we give them out to those interested in playing lacrosse.
We have three clinics for a total of about nine hours and players will spend helping, in addition to helping practices throughout the spring when the youth season begins. Several of our players will spend their time stringing sticks for new players too. We have about 25-30 student athletes helping with the clinics and 4-5 players help stringing the sticks for our youth players.
