to the new home of the San Francisco Riptide
Welcome to the Home Page of the San Francisco Lacrosse Club, also known as the San Francisco Riptide. Our mission is simply to help boys and girls develop a love for the game of lacrosse. In addition to developing their lacrosse skills, we hope that our players come away with an appreciation of teamwork and mutual respect, skills that are important both on and off the field. Getting kids excited about lacrosse is largely dependent on our coaching staff and so we strive to hire the very best, coaches with strong lacrosse credentials who enjoy sharing their passion for the sport with kids. We also believe that making lacrosse accessible to all kids, regardless of financial circumstances, is important for the growth of the sport and enriches the overall experience for players, coaches and families.
