Spring 2025 - Girls Program
Our girls spring lacrosse programs give players an opportunity to develop and compete at any level. Whether you’ve never picked up a stick before – or are looking to compete at the highest level, we are committed to providing players with an opportunity to:
1) develop and improve
2) compete in an appropriate environment
3) focus on having fun.
We believe lacrosse (and all sports) provide an invaluable medium to develop into better citizens: through hard work, kindness, teamwork, and humility.

TOWN BASED LEAGUE & PLAYING OUT OF DISTRICT
The WBLL & Marin Leagues adhere to clear “town based” geographical boundary requirement for which Club players can join. The goal of these policies is to focus on growing the sport, fostering a healthy environment focused on development, and to ensure competitive balance. The goal is also to mitigate recruiting and “team stacking”. All clubs within the WBLL and Marin League are non-profit organizations that intend to serve their local communities. San Rafael Lacrosse Club is fully supportive of this initiative.
- San Rafael Lacrosse Club serves the 94901 & 94903 counties
- If you DO NOT reside in these zip codes, we ask that you join your local club instead
- There are some exceptions:
- Special Circumstances will be considered and include: if a player goes to school outside of the home region, bullying, multiple residence's due to split family situation, divisional team not offered at "home club", etc.
- Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions regarding playing out-of-territory
