Prayers for Archer Senft
On August 5, 2015, Archer Senft broke his neck while taking a quick lunch swim during his summer job as a chef at the Beach Club. He dove head-first into an unseen sandbar. Archer, a lacrosse player from Maryland, and his family experienced hardship as a result of this injury and subsequent medical care. Archer's passions are artwork and lacrosse, thus, this is the perfect effort to help him progress.
Archer's brother Pete played on the Terps Lacrosse Club, which brought Lacrosse Playground even closer to their cause given our connection to the University of Maryland. Matt O'Dowd, for example, is a current member of the club team.

Charm City Youth Lacrosse
Charm City Youth Lacrosse League is the only league of its kind in Baltimore City. Their goal is to build a full scale league modeled after the best leagues in the Baltimore area by starting with our youngest players and getting kids involved in structured athletics before they are pulled into less positive activities.

Lax Seeds
According to Haudenosaunee history, the ancient game of Lacrosse was a gift by the Creator to be played for His enjoyment and as a medicine game for healing the people. The modern game has become very advanced. Cost and just the access to decent equipment and stringing keeps many away from our game. For some as the cost goes up, our game becomes further out of reach.
Our mission is to help grow lacrosse by limiting the barriers of cost and access. If a kid wants to play, we want to put a stick in their hand.
