Many families looking at this site will have players already in a club;
but, for those of you who want to try a new sport, take a camp this summer.
The local league in Northern California for youth starting in elementary up
to high school ages is the
Northern California Junior Lacrosse Association. There are over 50 clubs for this age level, use
the
NCJLA list of clubs to find one near you!
Note, lacrosse is a spring sport, but many clubs will have
LAX Fall Ball, which serves to maintain lacrosse skills and to evaluate players.
So if you try a summer camp and love lacrosse do not wait until spring
to start finding a club as many of them must limit the number of players on their rosters.
Lastly, in the fall some players play an indoor version of lacrosse called box lacrosse.
In Canada, the national sport is field lacrosse, but in the summer when the hockey rings
are free, they also love to play indoor lacrosse which they call Boxla or Box.
