Founded in 2009, Stallions Lacrosse is a Youth Lacrosse Organization dedicated to teaching boys and girls the sport of Lacrosse to children at both an educational and competitive level.  The boys program plays in the IBLAX league.  The girls program plays in the Illinois Lacrosse League.

Based in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, athletes who play on Stallions Lacrosse come from many different cities including Mundelein, Libertyville, Wauconda, Gurnee, Round Lake, and Grayslake.

Players will need to provide their own equipment, as follows:

• Stick-  Stick required 
  • Sticks can be found at Dicks or on Facebook Marketplace. Be sure to check/verify the stick is for the correct gender. All players should get the standard 3ft stick as use of longer poles are only allowed at the U14 level and if players shows enough skill for coach to allow its use. 
• Mouth Guard- required for games and practice 
  • Buy a few. Kids will lose them. Always nice to have some on standby!
• Cleats- not required but good to have, especially for practice/games on wet grass or games on turf.
  • Cleats do not need to be lacrosse 'specific'.  Soccer, Football, or Baseball cleats work well.
• Cradle Baby or Swax Lax- not required
  • This a good tool to have at home for practice indoors or walking around and getting comfortable with the lacrosse stick.
