Lacrosse Edge

A nonprofit organization

**Unlock the Power of Lacrosse: Join Us in Making a Difference!** Lacrosse is so much more than just sticks and scoring; it’s a sanctuary where young athletes can find refuge from daily stresses, reflect on their challenges, and work collaboratively towards common goals. At Lacrosse Edge, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we are passionate about growing the sport of youth lacrosse, with a special focus on box lacrosse. Through our programs, we not only teach the fundamentals of the game but also instill core values and foster character development. We delve into the rich history of lacrosse, celebrating its origins within Indigenous culture, empowering our youth to believe in themselves and one another as they pursue their dreams. 

Mavrix Lacrosse, a  program of Lacrosse Edge, stands as a premier youth box lacrosse initiative in the region. Our mission goes beyond building skilled players; we are dedicated to shaping compassionate and kind individuals. We believe every child should have the opportunity to play, regardless of financial barriers. We try to provide essential equipment, maintain minimal team fees, and offer low or free access to most clinics and events.  But we cannot do it with out you.  

 Your contribution can make a transformative impact on the lives of young athletes. Help us continue to provide this invaluable experience by donating or becoming a sponsor. Together, let’s ensure that every child has the chance to discover the joy of lacrosse and the power of community. **Donate now and be part of this incredible journey!**

Mission

Our mission is to empower youth through the transformative power of lacrosse and cultural education, fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all.

Background Statement

Lacrosse Edge is a 501(c)3 and was started in 2023 in Colorado. Youth are not only taught about the sport of lacrosse but also about the indigenous culture and character development. The Creator's Game is much more than catching and passing. It is about working together, clearing your mind...almost a medicine.

Dr. Alex Tuel has been a coach since the early 2000s and wanted to tie his love for the game as well as his education and history backgrounds into working towards a common goal - molding the entire youth player.

Thus, Lacrosse Edge was created.

In June of 2024 Mavrix Lacrosse traveled to Calgary to compete in its first box lacrosse tournament ever and at the largest box lacrosse tournament in North America. And...they brought home a gold medal in their division.
