This summer we will be offering a 6 week long program with 1 practice and 1 to 2 games per week for incoming 9^th through 12^th grade boys.  The summer session will begin on Tuesday July 10^th with our first game.  August 2^nd will be the final game of the season.

Practices will be held at Santa Monica High School (on the turf field) from 5PM to 8PM every Tuesday.  We will also have home games (also at SAMOHI) every Thursday night from 5PM to 8PM.  There will also be some away games to be held at Beverly Hills HS and/or Culver City HS on some Wednesdays, tba.

We will be playing teams including; Beverly Hills, Palisades (A & B), Loyola, Thousand Oaks, Palos Verdes, St. John Bosco & Malibu.

Registration for the summer program is $350 for the season of 8 to 10 games.  Checks can be dropped off or mailed to our General Manager, Chris Carrico.  (Please email him for his address if you do not have it.)

We will also be hosting a day camp/clinic from August 9^th through 12^th held at John Adams Middle School for an additional cost.  This camp will be a joint effort between Santa Monica Vikings Lacrosse and The International Diversity Lacrosse Council.  Details on guest coaches and the schedule will be announced soon.

Vikings Lacrosse Summer Program

We are excited to announce to you all today that we are fortunate enough to have just acquired, All-American and nominated to the California Lacrosse Hall Of Fame, Ryland Huyghue as our new Head Coach. Ryland has come to us with 40+ years experience playing & coaching lacrosse. Recently Ryland served as head coach at Cal State Fullerton and most recently at U.C. Irvine. His full bio is on the Coaches tab on our website for those of you who would like to read his full credentials.

WITH THE ADDITION OF RYLAND, OUR SUMMER PROGRAM IS GOING TO BE UNBELIEVABLE! DO NOT MISS OUT ON GETTING IN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE RYLAND ERA!

Coaches Ryland Huyghue (Coach from U.C. Irvine & Cal State Fullerton), Aaron Myers (Coach from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo) & S.M. Vikings Lacrosse Director Jeff Townsend will coach this program and we will be part of a league of 20 high school teams. We will be practicing at John Adams Middle School Tuesdays & Thursdays from 5PM to 8PM and games will be held at JAMS and other area schools. Palisades High School’s summer team will also be practicing along side of us at JAMS!

The summer league dues will be $250 per player (which will cover the league dues, coaching, ref fees, practice fields & jerseys.) We wanted to make this program affordable as we anticipate that not everyone will be able to make every practice or game.

Summer Lacrosse Camps!!

Summer is rapidly approaching and you all (unless you already know everything) need to get signed up for a summer lacrosse camp!

We would like all of you to have as much information about summer lacrosse camps as possible as we feel that it is very important for you to have the opportunity to attend some of the great camps over the summer months.

These camps are like a college lacrosse experience as they are held at universities and players will be sleeping in the dorms and eating in the school cafeterias, etc. It is a great experience for everyone!

There are a lot of camps to choose from ... but we are highlighting below a few that we highly recommend.

Also, if we get enough of our players going to one or more of the camps, we will get a group discount.

You should all know to get signed up as soon as possible as space is limited in these camps.
