History

Hudsonville Youth Lacrosse was formed in 2012 to give kids in the area the opportunity to learn and play the game of lacrosse. Lacrosse has grown into an official varsity sports at Hudsonville High School, including JV and Varsity teams. Our youth program is thriving and continues to grow.

Hudsonville Youth Lacrosse programs extend from Pre-K to 8th grade, for the spring season. At this time, we do not offer summer, fall, and winter programs, but there are several local travel programs that do. By affiliating ourselves with local travel clubs, we are afforded specialized training for our members.
