ABOUT TIGER LACROSSE
Jackson-Reed Tiger Lacrosse is the only public school lacrosse team in Washington DC. In partnership with Jackson-Reed High School, we operate as a club that is self-funded through fundraising and player dues. The team consists of players of all levels and all high school grades. Because we are the only team in the DC public school system, we welcome those student-athletes who wish to pursue lacrosse, but don't have a team at their school.
GO TIGER LAX!
