Welcome to Chicago Youth Lacrosse, chicago's youth lacrosse development program. With the growth of lacrosse expanding into downtown Chicago we look to serve the future of the game by offering introductory to advanced lacrosse programs, clinics and camps.
Instruction from highly qualified coaches that include current or former players of Division I, II and III, Major League Lacrosse players and local high school coaches will deliver an unparalleled learning experience, exciting environment and a place where young men (and soon to be young women) can learn to play the fastest game on two feet, all in the convenience of locations in or near downtown Chicago.
