Give Back. Grow The Game.
Lacrosse has given us discipline, friendships, and opportunity. Giving back is part of how we keep the game growing.
STIX N STONES LAX has completed three community gear drives, collecting gently used lacrosse equipment to help more young athletes access the sport. Now, we’re preparing for our fourth—and inviting our community to get involved again.
WHAT WE’RE DOING
We collect gently used lacrosse equipment and help put it back into play. Sticks, gloves, pads, and other gear that players have outgrown or no longer use can give someone else the chance to get started.
With three drives behind us, we’re continuing to build on that effort. Every donation helps us make the next drive count.
WHERE IT GOES
Our gear drives support youth programs in underserved communities, including athletes connected to the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians in Southern California.
Our goal is to help reduce the equipment barrier so more young people can pick up a stick, join a team, and experience the game.
WHAT YOU CAN DONATE
• Sticks
• Gloves
• Arm pads and elbow pads
• Shoulder pads
• Helmets
• Cleats
• Practice gear
Please donate equipment that is clean and in good condition. Protective equipment should meet current safety requirements.
OUR FOURTH GEAR DRIVE
Our fourth community gear drive is coming soon. The date and drop-off locations are to be announced.
Check back here for updates. In the meantime, if you have equipment to donate or would like to help organize or collect gear, reach out to Austin at austinbrown@stixnstoneslax.com.
WHY IT MATTERS
Getting started in lacrosse takes more than an interest in the game. Equipment costs can keep young athletes on the sidelines before they ever have a chance to play.
Your old gear could become someone else’s first stick, first practice, or first season. After three drives, that purpose remains the same: help more players find their place in lacrosse.
PLAY HARD. GIVE BACK. GROW THE GAME.
