HEADstrong Lacrosse Club Announces Expansion Into South Jersey


The HEADstrong Foundation™ is proud to announce the creation of the HEADstrong Lacrosse Club of South Jersey. This fall, HEADstrong will launch two divisions of the non-profit lacrosse club with locations in Pitman (HLCSJ West) and Absecon, New Jersey (HLCSJ East). Both programs will initially consist of boy’s teams in the 2020, 2021 and 2022 graduating classes and will begin competing in fall 2015. HEADstrong has empowered Hofstra alum and South Jersey native Brad Loizeaux to lead HLCSJ West while Stockton University Men’s Lacrosse Coach Kevin Zulauf will be at the helm of HLCSJ East. The new program will operate in a year-round format integrating fall competition, winter skill development sessions, spring community service and summer tournament play. Within the next few weeks both divisions will host open tryouts in effort to build their rosters. HEADstrong South Jersey plans to take on much more than their opponents as they will be involved with fundraising efforts to help advance the mission of the HEADstrong Foundation™, a 501(c) 3 organization well known in the sport, committed to improving quality of life for cancer patients and their families.
HEADstrong South Jersey West will specifically target players from Camden, Gloucester and Salem counties, while the programs counterpart HEADstrong South Jersey East will target players from Atlantic, Cape May and Cumberland counties. Tryouts are open to all players in the appropriate graduating year. There will be a $40 tryout fee with proceeds supporting the HEADstrong Foundation™. All players are encouraged to register online in advance. Walk-ups will be accepted however online registration is preferred. All protective gear including mouth guard will be required for tryouts.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
