Shore 2 Shore is a competitive club lacrosse program, currently with teams from High School to 2nd Grade and a clinic series for Kindergarten to 1st Grade.  The program is based on high level, full year training.

Shore 2 Shore, or as we like to call ourselves, “S2S”, considers ourselves one big family made up of all the players, coaches and players’ families. We put an emphasis on team camaraderie on and off the field. Participating on a travel team should be more than just playing lacrosse, it’s an opportunity to grow long lasting relationships and bring families together. On the field, our boys are fully committed to working hard and getting better at lacrosse while learning what it takes to be a good teammate. All players, coaches, and parents are expected to display good sportsmanship at all times.
