Lacrosse Victoria and School Sport Victoria Team Up to Grow the Game

Lacrosse Victoria is thrilled to announce a new two-year partnership with School Sport Victoria (SSV) to deliver the SSV interschool lacrosse competition to students across the state.

We're proud to continue working with SSV to give young Victorians the chance to pick up a stick and discover the fast-paced fun of lacrosse. Playing it at school is one of the easiest ways for students to get involved, and when they get the chance to compete against other schools, they see that lacrosse isn’t just fun, it’s competitive too.

In 2024 alone, LV and SSV helped 3,032 students take part in interschool lacrosse matches at both primary and secondary levels. For many, this was their first experience of the sport and the beginning of a lifelong connection.

It is all part of building a strong grassroots pathway, helping school players take the next step into club lacrosse and grow our sport.

We’re excited to keep working together with SSV over the next two years and look forward to what we can achieve together for our favourite sport!

If your school doesn't offer lacrosse, there are grants to help them get started, and the next round of Quick Stix Sporting Schools Applications opens on the 12th of May. Make sure to touch base with your local schools to encourage them to apply for the funding. With the Quick Stix funding, the school can purchase equipment, the program can upskill the teachers, the club can promote your upcoming junior programs, and it is a great fantastic prep program for SSV District & State Finals.

Term 3, 2025 Applications Open
8am AEDT Monday 12 May, 2025 - 5pm AEDT Friday 30 May, 2025
