The Appleseed Program

Our community-facing education program: professional development equipping educators to introduce lacrosse in schools, and free education and support for after-school community lacrosse programs.

School & community education

Equip educators. Support the programs already growing the game.

School professional development is designed to help educators introduce lacrosse with confidence: its history, teaching fundamentals, and inclusive approaches to participation. After school, free education and support build on the work of local community lacrosse programs.

Planned delivery is director-led, supported by college volunteers from startup through Cultivate the Forest while structured internships develop. Volunteers learn through session preparation, practical teaching, reflection, and increasing responsibility under director guidance.
