About

The West Valley Red Hawks Lacrosse Club is an independent, non-profit youth sports organization and a 501c(3) corporation. The Club was established in 2004 to bring the sport of lacrosse to boys and girls in Los Gatos-Saratoga-Campbell-San Jose area.

The Red Hawks are dedicated to developing lacrosse skills, good sportsmanship, teamwork, accountability and respect in a healthy and fun environment. The Red Hawks is a competitive program that develops players in all aspects of the game.

Who Can Play

We have established lacrosse programs for boys and girls in grades 1 through 8.  We accept new lacrosse players at every level, and field competitive A-Level teams at 14U most seasons.

The Season, Games & Practice

The season runs January through May inclusive, with pre-season clinics and activities beginning in November. Most teams practice twice per week during the season -- usually Mon/Weds and Tues/Thurs.  Practice is held at fields in Los Gatos, San Jose, and Saratoga.

We play other clubs around the Bay Area so some travel will be necessary, with more travel at 14U.  No overnight travel is required.  Games are every Saturday and some Sundays March through May, with time-off during holidays and spring break.  Most teams will play ten games per season, with a few more at the 14U age group, and a few less at 8U.

Practice fields and times are confirmed in December.

Registration

Registration opens on or around October 1 ever year.  We have a limited roster and implement wait-lists every season, so please register promptly.

Fees and age eligibility are listed on the Registration Page.  The Red Hawks offer need-based Player Grants to offset in-part the cost of playing the game.
