We the players and parents of the Weston Lacrosse Club have had a remarkable 15 years together. Since the first season in 1999 when we had 32 players, we now have 380 boys and girls playing lacrosse in Weston. Our high school boys’ team has won two state titles and our girls’ team has won one state title. The boys’ record is 128-56 (70%) since 2005, and the girls’ record is 48-12 (80%) since 2011. Our program has developed young men and women as respectful student-athletes and good citizens. Many of our children and parents have formed lasting friendships through the game of lacrosse.
The Weston Lacrosse Club Endowment Fund is a critical source of long-term funding for youth and high school boys and girls lacrosse. Several hundred families donated nearly $180,000 to the Endowment between 2007-2010 and it stood at $202,000 as of March 31, 2013. The Endowment permanently funds the WLC High School Merit Award and it funded the Wall Ball at Weston HS. The Endowment funds long-term visionary ideas that drive our success and excellence, while annual fees cover the normal operating expenses. In the future, the Endowment could be use to provide funding for such projects as field lighting, equipment and uniform purchases, coaching specialists, adding another turf field to the school complex, or other capital improvements that can help to keep our lacrosse program competitive.
Please help us to reach our goal of having 100% of our families participate in making a tax-deductible contribution to this important source of funding for our program. Contributions to the endowment can be made online at the below address:
