Lacrosse in Memphis has been growing steadily over the past 30 years. As the national landscape of lacrosse has rapidly evolved, Memphis athletes have not consistently ascended to the highest levels of the sport as compared to other southeastern cities. Moreover, in recent years, many Memphis athletes have had to seek opportunities outside of Memphis to take the next step in their growth as lacrosse players. 

Memphis Lacrosse Academy exists to teach lacrosse, inspire growth, and develop future leaders who will impact their teams, schools, and the world through transformational lacrosse experiences.

To provide an opportunity and venue for athletes having the talent and desire to compete at a higher level. At the same time, creating memorable team experiences that develop players’ character, discipline and integrity. Excellence, sportsmanship, and competitiveness define No-Excuse Lacrosse. Through advanced instruction we strive to enhance the quality of lacrosse in the mid-south and showcase that quality to the lacrosse community at large. Lacrosse is the fastest growing sport in the country; for fifteen years we have helped fuel that growth by developing quality players in Tennessee.

901 Lacrosse was founded in 2017 with a mission to bring the game of box lacrosse to the greater Memphis area.  The benefits of the game have been lauded by lacrosse greats across the sport, including coaches, players and commentators.  You can see the impact box lacrosse has had in the NCAA & PLL by just the sheer number of Canadian players, where the game of box lacrosse originated, dominating their craft.
