Lacrosse is one of the fastest-growing sports in the country, but in New York City it can be hard to know where to begin. Most club teams cost thousands of dollars a year in gear, fees and travel. For families in the South Bronx, Bronx Lacrosse removes those barriers.
Who can join
Bronx Lacrosse is a free, year-round youth lacrosse program for students ages 10 to 18 who live or go to school in the Bronx and whose families demonstrate financial need. No experience is needed. Many of our players picked up a stick for the first time with us.
What it costs
Nothing. We supply sticks, helmets, pads, uniforms and everything else a player needs.
What to expect
Students take part 4 to 6 days a week, all year. Our coaches are USA Lacrosse certified and have played in high school and college. Players compete against the best teams in the city, and our boys and girls teams both won 2026 NYC Middle School Athletic League championships.
School comes first
Every player also takes part in daily tutoring, Algebra Regents prep, and support applying to high school and college. 100% of our students graduate high school in four years.
