Our Mission
The 2023 season will look different for Female Box Lacrosse players from VELA, PenLax, JDF, and SLA. All Female divisions will be hosted at Victoria-Esquimalt. The four local associations came together to form this agreement in a united effort to increase player numbers, organize fundraising, and create consistency. The goal is to establish a unique identity for our girls by establishing a solid foundation for growth and development.
