Lucky Lax Club
An elite, girl's only lacrosse club
About Lucky Lax
Lucky Lax was founded in 2003 by Catherine Shelley and Trish Derwart with a mission to provide the Greater Columbus Area with quality instruction and playing opportunities in Girl’s Lacrosse. Lucky Lax takes pride in providing an educational experience in a competitive arena while developing lacrosse players to their full potential. We are thrilled to offer a Club Program where our efforts are focused on developing the elite lacrosse player and elite teams while offering the tools, opportunities, and resources for both to thrive. The Club Program started competing in the summer of 2012.
The Club Philosophy
We believe competition is an integral part of forming a successful club. Tryouts are held to foster that competition. The Lucky Lax Club is built on the principle of instructing the individual and the team from the ground up. Meaning all elements of the game will be addressed from fundamentals to team strategy, individual skill, as well as offensive and defensive concepts. Consistency and organization is the name of our game. Teams remain together to create chemistry and fully develop their play. Our top notch coaches will remain with their teams throughout the Club Season. This gives them the opportunity to know their players, address their challenges and build on their strengths. Did we mention FUN? After all, lacrosse is the best sport on two feet! We strive for our players to have an awesome experience with us at Lucky Lax.
