Our Mission

Promote and provide opportunities for girls in the greater Northwest St. Johns, Florida area to learn and experience lacrosse within a positive recreational environment that focuses on teaching and playing the sport from the perspective of the sport played by girls and women.

Philosophy & Purpose

Creeks Girls’ Lacrosse is a not-for-profit organization focused promoting and organizing the play of lacrosse for girls in kindergarten through 8th grade.

Players of all experience are welcome. Creeks Lacrosse is a recreational program where players are expected to participate in at least half of the game. The program provides an open registration process and try-outs are not required.

Creeks Lacrosse, along with the other girls’ programs in the area, plays a smaller sided game (fewer players) to promote skill development and opportunity to participate in game play.

Creeks Girls Lacrosse recognizes that girls’ lacrosse is a relatively new sport to northeast Florida. We take a holistic approach to developing lacrosse in northern St. Johns. Players will be excited to find many high school and college level players helping coach.
