US Lacrosse supports the efforts of SimplyLacrosse.com to help educate and encourage new Lacrosse Clubs into growing and developing healthy and safe programs. At US Lacrosse we have many tools and programs to assist new clubs in their development.



Here are our Top 5 must do's for new Lacrosse clubs

1. Visit the US Lacrosse New Start Program page and apply for the start up manual

The start up manual has tons of great information including information on all of our tips below and much more.
o Develop a budget
o Secure field space
o Coaching Information
o Safety and Insurance
o Marketing your Club
o And much, much more?

2. Develop a budget
The first step in developing your club is creating a workable budget. The budget is the foundation of your club and you must plan for the financial needs of the group. You can find more information in the US Lacrosse Start Up manual

3. Secure Field Space
Once you have a budget outline you will need to find places to practice and play. This is a fundamental step in starting a club.
