New for 24-25, Blue Star is a Proud Nike Program Partner!!!

Blue Star Lacrosse and Nike

We love the game, we love to teach the game.

At Blue Star Lacrosse, we believe in using lacrosse to build character, work ethic and teach life-long lessons. At Blue Star, we aim to develop great young lacrosse players and great young men.  We want our players to be equipped to play at the highest levels of lacrosse and also to be able to overcome any obstacles and adversity they face in life. At the youth level, we do not worry about "winning", rather we believe in teaching and creating the best players/teams possible. Through doing this, the winning will take care of itself. 

While we are teachers of the game, our strong suit and also a competitive advantage is college placement. We pride ourselves on helping families navigate the recruiting process as their sons travel through it. With hundreds of players placed previously, our staff will work to ensure that all players find a great college match.
