Maya Lacrosse

Maya Lacrosse empowers young adults to build stronger communities through lacrosse, sports education, and leadership development in Guatemala.

Overview

We are a small nonprofit organization working with at-risk young adults who live in extremely poor rural and urban communities throughout Guatemala.

Somos una organización sin fines de lucro trabajando con jóvenes en riesgo que se encuentran en situaciones de extrema pobreza en las comunidades urbanas y rurales de Guatemala.

Description

Maya Lacrosse funds community lacrosse programs in Guatemala, both in the inner city and rural countryside. We believe that at-risk youth can inspire positive change in their communities when given the proper training and skills.

Our programming extends beyond lacrosse practices by providing leadership training, teamwork skills, and professional development for our Guatemalan lacrosse and community all-stars.

We have two main bases of operation: Guatemala City and Xela where we coordinate activities and events to promote lacrosse.
