Getting your child to sports practice shouldn't be a struggle.
It shouldn't be one more thing that they "have to" do, like finishing homework or eating vegetables.
Our philosophy is that the game needs to remain fun, FOR ALL PLAYERS OF ALL AGES AND LEVELS, and these experiences need to be rewarding, both on and off the field.
We support ALL girls as they take their play to the next level by growing their love of the game and celebrating both their individual and our team successes.
Our coaching model allows players to increase their individual skill level while growing as athletes and teammates. We develop young leaders on and off the field while supporting the
WHOLE GIRL.

MEET OUR OWNER, KERRI KELLEHER
MEET OUR OWNER, KERRI KELLEHER
February 14, 2018
Kerri has been coaching youth sports for ten years and has instructed hundreds of players. She's been a mom and on the sidelines of youth sports for even longer. Kerri has seen the needs of young women athletes develop and change in recent years, and has seen the impact that friendships, school work, home struggles, and preteen/teen development have on young women.
She realized that to be successful on the field, girls need to be supported in EVERYTHING they have going on in their daily lives. That is why Kerri is committed to making youth sports an outlet and a safe place for athletes to discover new things and develop their skills, while working their way to becoming their best selves.
Athletes are taught to focus on improving their individual skills while supporting their teammates as they explore their own journey. We practice with the promise to each other that we will BUILD EACH OTHER UP every day.
In addition to her time on the lacrosse field, Kerri has coached high school varsity volleyball, middle school field hockey, soccer and basketball, and is the mom to three amazing lax players who love the game equally, despite varied levels of play.

This is an easy yes. We want to support and enrich town and school programs as well as continue to develop girl athletes. On this note, we will never create a conflict during regular or playoff season play.

You don't need to spend a lot of money to get started. Players only need a stick, mouth guard, and goggles. Indoor play requires sneakers while outdoor play requires cleats.
