Youth Lacrosse Programs
LAX Tots
Our Youth Lacrosse Programs are designed to teach children (Age 3-6 years) Lacrosse by breaking down the basics of the game in an exciting way! Each class mixes skill specific activities as well as an opportunity for children to burn some energy! Through the first year, LAXTots has grown from 12 children to over 100 children throughout Long Island! Instructors teach children how to scoop, cradle, and shoot as well as offensive and defensive strategies. Our youth lacrosse programs are NON-CONTACT, so children are able to learn the basic skills without having to worry about wearing a ton of equipment!
