About Us

TOP COACHING! TOP COMPETITION!

New Jersey Lacrosse Club is a top level club program that focuses on developing player skills and teamwork while stressing the importance of academic performance to reach the Collegiate level. NJLC complements the town, middle and high school lacrosse programs by providing additional coaching, partnerships, competitive tournaments and the overall commitment of teaching and growing the passion of the sport of lacrosse.   

The club laid its foundation on the premise of giving our members the opportunity to showcase their lacrosse abilities to coaches at institutions of higher education. NJLC follows a time tested practice of growing players individually along side team based concepts focusing on playing at the correct level of competition and not focusing on chasing championships or "status".

We provide a family atmosphere where every player is valued and where each can grow as an athlete and as an individual. We want our players to achieve success on and off the field and grow with them throughout their middle and high school lacrosse journeys. 

NJLC prides itself on top notch training, constantly evolving coaching techniques, open and accessible communication and most importantly a family atmosphere for all of our players. We do our best to provide positive, high-end coaching for all of our teams and give each player the opportunity to grow as an athlete. NJLC is aimed at providing young athletes with the instruction and passion it takes to compete at the national level and ultimately the collegiate level. 

NJLC is based out of Allentown, NJ. Our central location allows us to have players from the following counties: Monmouth, Mercer, Ocean, Burlington, Middlesex, Hunterdon and Atlantic. 

Since NJLC beginning  in 2009 we have sent over 300 players onto college. Take a look at our Alumni Page
