Overview

Mission

As an established 501(c)(3), the exempt purpose of the organization is to educate high school students in the sport of lacrosse by building strong teamwork skills, demonstrating good sportsmanship conduct, and teaching the technical and athletic skills needed to play the sport of lacrosse.

What it reported doing in 2023

Educating motivated high school students to excel in the sport of lacrosse. Expenses are incurred to directly promote the club's exempt purpose. Athletes are supported with access to indoor and outdoor training facilities, league play, coaching clinics, officiating costs, travel and lodging, physical conditioning and required state and national association dues and fees.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
