NJ Riot® Lacrosse was conceived by forward-thinking lacrosse parents who have lived in the trenches of the game since their boys were little. With years of experience under their belt, they were determined to create a new organization: one that encompassed all the positive aspects of prior organizations and one that eliminated the negative aspects. The NJ Riot Lacrosse goal was to change the existing club mentality and "corporate" structure of existing lacrosse organizations. Our mission today remains the same is it was upon our founding: to be a premier organization that focuses on high-level play year-round, creates a fun environment in which players consistently learn, and to foster a deep love of the game.
The founders of NJ Riot Lacrosse share the same vision not only for our children, but for all the boys we have raised in the game over the years, and the young men we intend to raise in the game in the coming years. We strive to honor the game by not just competing, but teaching as well.
