skip navigationARLC offers Lacrosse season's for both boys and girls that have regularly scheduled and coached practices, games with other lacrosse programs, and end of season tournaments. More information on ARLC Girls Lacrosse can be found here, and more information on ARLC Boys Lacrosse is below.
If you have a girl that would prefer Girls Lacrosse with all girl players and girls rules and equipment, ARAA is partnering with both Andover and Coon Rapids Lacrosse Clubs to jointly provide Girls Lacrosse teams. Through this partnership, Girls Lacrosse is offered to all Anoka-Ramsey girls for U10, U12, U14, U19 via the Andover Lacrosse website.
Please note that ARAA girls are welcome to join any of the ARAA Boys Lacrosse teams but will play by the boys rules for practice and games. There are notable differences between the rules and some equipment differences as well to consider. If you have a girl that would prefer to Girls Lacrosse with all girls and girls rules and equipment see the link above for options.

Location: Various arenas around the metro
Practice: Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Anoka Ice Arena.
Games: Games will be held Saturdays and Sundays, between 8:00am and 6:00pm
