About West Texas Lacrosse
West Texas Lacrosse (WTL) began in Spring 2014 with learn-to-play clinics to expose the sport to West Texas youth. Due to the incredible response to the clinics, WTL brought in the Texas Tech Lacrosse Club to help coach the kids and bring more attention to the sport. Our youth teams have participated in tournaments in Texas and New Mexico throughout the years. For more information, visit www.westtexaslacrosse.org.
