We are closing the gap.

Only 14 percent of students in the Detroit public school system can read at or above grade level. Detroit United Lacrosse is closing the gap by providing services starting with free personalized tutoring and ending with increased pathways to prosperity. You can help us reduce academic disparities by giving today.

We are Detroit United Lacrosse

We are passionate about changing lives. We use the sport of lacrosse to unify the youth of Detroit’s neighborhoods by promoting academic & character education, personal development, and pathways to prosperity. The values of the sport - respect, honor, courage, and integrity - guide our programming and empower our youth to lead successful and fulfilling lives.

Every student is provided access to high quality academic services, one-on-one pre-college counseling, and career opportunities.

Character

Our youth receive character education in each program centered around the values of the sport of lacrosse - respect, honor, courage, and integrity.

We care about our students holistically. Alongside lacrosse training, each student is provided education in nutrition, mental & physical health, and wellness.

Through academic support, character education, and lacrosse training, we aim to achieve 100% high school graduation and 100% college or career enrollment among our students.

Get Involved

Throughout each season, Detroit United Lacrosse is in need of volunteers to help coach, referee and offer support to ensure the success of the organization. We encourage the members of all Detroit neighborhoods to get active and participate in our programming.
