Youth Lacrosse Involvement
I am drawn to creating opportunities for kids to play a sport that changed my life. After moving to Monterey in 2021, I linked up with two former NCAA lacrosse players to develop pathways for students to access the sport. Together we run Bixby Ballers Lacrosse which provides skill specific training camps, summer leagues, and tournament teams for players of all ages. In addition to Bixby, we have created recreational lacrosse teams that remove barriers of entry and offer accessible playing opportunities for children.
