Girls' LacrosseAbout the Program
The Pin Oak Girls’ Lacrosse Club is open to girls in 6th – 8th grade.
Lacrosse is a fast, fun and exciting sport that is quickly gaining interest in Texas. Our girls have enjoyed learning the basics of the sport and have experienced many successes on the field. Women's Lacrosse, or LAX, is a non-contact sport played with twelve players on each team. The object of the game is to use a long-handled racket, known as a lacrosse stick to catch, carry, and pass a solid rubber ball in an effort to score by ultimately hurling the ball into an opponent's goal. Defensively the object is to keep the opposing team from scoring and to dispossess them of the ball through the use of stick checking and body positioning.
Girls’ Lacrosse at Pin Oak is a Club sport comprised of 6th, 7th and 8th grade girls. HISD does not provide coaching, financial support, or transportation. We are non UIL. Pin Oak Middle School generously allows and supports us to represent Pin Oak Middle School. The Club is managed and operated by the parents of the players. Without parent volunteers and participation, there is no team. The Club is successful due to the volunteer efforts of the parents. It is our hope that you will embrace the value of this Pin Oak tradition.
We are members of US Lacrosse through the Houston Chapter known as Greater Houston Lacrosse.
Fall is a great time to decide if this is a sport your child wants to pursue. Registration and commitment for the Spring season will take place in December.
