Overview

Mission

Petaluma youth lacrosse promotes the sport of lacrosse to the youth of petaluma in various ways, with the primary goal of fielding teams in various age groups and skill levels for both boys and girls, which practice together and then compete against the teams from other clubs during the spring season which generally runs from january to may. Additionally, we support our primary goal by offering instructional clinics to current and prospective players, and by identifying and recruiting coaches to whom we offer education and training.

What it reported doing in 2015

Recruiting, education & training of coaches: for our 2014 season we had a total of 34 coaches serving our 15 teams. In order to field teams, we must have adults who are willing to serve as coaches. We identify and recruit prospective coaches from our member families, other community members at large, and in some cases, by placing job postings on lacrosse related websites and by personal networking. Most of our coaches are parent or community volunteers, but in the case of teams that require a higher level of coaching knowledge (high school and some "a" skill level youth teams) we will sometimes offer a stipend. Once we have retained a coach, we endeavor to provide him or her with ongoing education and training to continuously improve the quality of the experience for our youth. At the current time (2014) our coaches are required to have completed the following 5 items: a background check, current membership in u.s. Lacrosse, agreed to the code of conduct as provided by the ncjla, completed the "level one" online lacrosse coaching course, and taken the online "positive coaching alliance" course. In addition, we offer opportunities as they arise for our coaches to further their coaching education through in-person workshops and clinics. The recruitment, education and retention of coaching staff furthers the club's purposes by allowing us to form supervised teams and youth development is enhanced by our investment into the coaches' training. Quality coaches model sportsmanship, responsibility, integrity, communication and time management.
