St. Agnes boasts a number of different opportunities for young lacrosse players looking to hone their skills during their high school years. Many of our student-athletes advance to play sports at the collegiate level, and we pride ourselves on providing top-tier preparation for students who wish to continue their athletic pursuits beyond high school.

Coaches and other athletics department staff are dedicated to providing individualized support for student-athletes of all backgrounds and abilities. And, the Tiger Athletics program prides itself on preparing students for the ultimate competition of life.

Beyond the standard lacrosse season, St. Agnes Academy also offers a number of athletic summer camp programs for students looking to stay active when school is not in session. 

St. Agnes believes that participation in athletic activities can help contribute to a student’s well-roundedness and even improve pupils’ academic performance. However, we recognize that safety is of the utmost importance for young people seeking to devote their time and energy to athletic pursuits.

For this reason, our coaches, administration, and support staff all go to great lengths to ensure that student-athletes remain physically and mentally healthy during the athletic season and beyond.

We work hand-in-hand with national, state, and local officials to ensure that our athletic offerings comply with key regulations and recommendations for health, safety, and longevity.

Participating in sports like lacrosse can help students learn valuable life lessons and become more engaged, high-achieving members of their communities. In addition to promoting healthy lifestyle habits, playing sports can help students learn to communicate and collaborate effectively in team-centered environments.

Lacrosse is a team sport, so students must learn to engage with multiple ideas, opinions, and perspectives to accomplish their common goals. Research has also demonstrated that students who participate in structured athletic activities tend to perform better academically.

At St. Agnes, we hold our student-athletes to high academic standards, and students must continue to demonstrate consistently high levels of achievement to remain in good standing with the athletic department.

Participating in high school athletics can also help students build their self-confidence and develop valuable life skills that will follow them far beyond their high school years.

We are passionate about girls high school lacrosse at St. Agnes. We believe it is an integral part of developing the entire person during a child’s time on our campus.
