"A coach will impact more young people in a year than the average person does in a lifetime".
-Billy Graham
At Maplewood Lacrosse Club, our goal is to create a supportive environment that encourages K-8 kids of all skill levels to discover the JOY of the game and develop a lasting love for lacrosse - because every energetic kid deserves the chance to dodge, dive and run with a stick.
We believe sports are about more than just the game – they’re about building character, creating lasting friendships, and being part of a welcoming community. With a focus FUN, growth, and positive, age-appropriate coaching, we want lacrosse to be the sport every player looks forward to.
While we certainly appreciate a win, and coach the skills and strategies needed to compete, we measure success on the field by much more than numbers on a scoreboard. When players dare to try new skills, teammates work together, and a team shows resilience when things go sideways, we have lots to celebrate.
Our club is committed to respecting the game’s roots and fostering a long-lasting appreciation for the Creators’ Game. Good sportsmanship, playing and coaching with class, and building a strong community of players, coaches, and supporters who exemplify these values are essential to the Maplewood Lacrosse Club culture.
