Program Info

Youth Lacrosse

Our goal is to teach our kids the fundamentals of the sport of football, while we create a safe environment for learning, playing and enjoying the game of Football.

We started in 2022 with just 7th & 8th Grade, 18 kids, 14 of the kids they never played lacrosse before.  We went 1-10 in 2022.  In 2023 7th & 8th Grade returned 12 kids with experience and we went 5-6.  We also expended to include K-6th grade with 20 kids all brand new to the sport, playing in the Marysville youth program.

We are aligned with the BV High school program and are excited to create a program that will be around for years to come here at Buckeye Valley. GO BARONS!
