The Brooklyn Lacrosse Club, NYC’s fastest growing lacrosse organization, is looking for a few good coaches for its Summer 2013 Program and beyond.

 The Brooklyn Lacrosse Club was founded in 2012, and has rocketed to over 225 kids on 9 teams this Spring.  Our Summer program, hosted over 7 Sunday in July and August, currently has over 1,000 registrations with 2 months left to sign up. Programs are offered to boys and girls, from Pre-K through 12th grade. 

The Brooklyn Lacrosse Club is NYC’s only lacrosse organization that counts national Champions (Division 1 and 2), Hall-of-Famers and former Professional players among it ranks.  Playing experience is important, but more important is the love for the game and the desire to introduce the sport to the youth of Brooklyn.

The Brooklyn Lacrosse Club will be hosting 2 Open Houses for prospective coaches:

  • Saturday, May 18th at 4pm at Pier 5 of the Brooklyn Bridge Park.(Field 3)
  • Saturday, June 15th at 3pm at Pier 5 of the Brooklyn Bridge Park.(Field 3)
All coaches accepted into our program will be eligible to take The US Lacrosse Coach Training Program as well as CPR/medical training, all paid for by the Brooklyn Lacrosse Club.

Our Mission is to bring the sport of Lacrosse to the youth of Brooklyn, emphasizing Fundamentals, Teamwork, Respect and Brooklyn. The essence of our organization is the belief that Lacrosse should be made accessible to all children, despite the various barriers of entry that exist in urban areas; such as cost, perception, and logistics.
