History and Mission:
Seminole Lacrosse Club began in the fall of 1998 with 4 boys’ teams. The purpose was to provide middle school age players the opportunity to learn and play the great game of lacrosse. Each season the league has grown to now over 350 participants. This growth has resulted from the efforts of a large group of dedicated high school player and parents (who act as head coaches, assistant coaches and referees).
We strive to not only teach the fundamentals of the games of Lacrosse but to teach each player to “honor the game”. Since its Native American origins, sportsmanship has been a tradition in the game of Lacrosse. Our organization as adopted the recommendations of the National US Lacrosse Organization. We do not keep score in games, there is no league standing and our end of the season celebration is in the form of a Jamboree. Every player receives a participation trophy.
Sportsmanship is the essence of what the Club strives for. We expect all coaches, players and spectators/guests to behave in the manner of high sportsmanship. No foul language on the field or sidelines, no ridiculing referees calls, no coaching from the spectator sideline, etc. Offenders of this policy will be asked to leave the sidelines. Club Officials will decide when it is appropriate for the offender to be re-instated.
