Youth Lacrosse clubs in Columbus, Ohio

[adeellis]

May have to relocate to Columbus, Ohio and I'm looking for an area to live that has a good youth lacrosse program as well as a high school program. Doesn't seem to be as popular there in Columbus, Ohio as it is here in Western New York.(But I could be wrong) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

youd be surprised. upper arlington is west of columbus (not exactly sure how close though) and that team has won the ohio d1 state championship for like 5 years in a row and cracked laxpower's top 25. dublin is also near upper arlington and they have a few good progams including some youth ones.

im actually up in cleveland but i know there are a lot of people on here from columbus/dublin so they will be able to help you out more than me

Columbus is pretty good when it comes to lacrosse, so is the Dublin area. As Kevidinho said UA is a good school, but its a pretty rich neighborhood.

Consider yourself lucky as central Ohio has probably experienced the largest increase in lacrosse participation than any other state in the last 5-10 years.

You will have no problem finding a youth league.

Assuming "middle/upper" class income you should look to Worthington, Dublin, Upper Arlington as these three school systems have the history, community/facility support, and coaches you desire. Not to mention, arguably, the best education your child can receive from public schools in the area. Of course there are some excllent private schools that offer lacrosse as well, just not at the same level of competition.

Upper Arlington is the place to be for a feeder lacrosse system. Programs begin at age eight. They have a middle school system where the two coaches of the two schools know the high school system well that the head coach has created, and when they get to the high school they are ready to play.

The high school coach is Ted Wolford who has lead the program for the past 15 or so years and is one of the best highschool coaches in the country sending dozens into D1 college programs unlike any other midwest program.

UA is a public school system just 10 minutes from downtown Columbus.
