A helping hand to celebrate our 100 years…
With over 160 children already participating in our junior teams, we want to continue to develop the sport of lacrosse within our local community and make sure that new players can have a safe and well-equipped start. We were lucky enough to have our grant application accepted by The Lacrosse Foundation and have received funding to provide our junior section with 30 sticks, 15 helmets, 15 pairs of goggles, 15 sets of elbow pads, 3 sets of goalie kit, 4 goals, plus cones, training bibs, and goal targets.
As last year’s President Martin said “Having this support from TLF has been hugely beneficial to our junior programme. This now acts as a springboard to grow our development programme and attract even more children to the game. Our Sunday sessions now see over 120 boys and girls learning and playing the game, and with the right equipment and the right sizing we've already seen a dramatic improvement from our newest players".
We cannot thanks The Lacrosse Foundation enough and we cannot wait to see our next generation of lacrosse players benefitting from the equipment!
