Noma Lacrosse Foundation A California Nonprofit Corporation

Noma Lax Supporters!  As you all know, a well-fueled athlete plays better than one playing on an empty stomach!

Many of you have expressed an interest in helping the Noma Lacrosse Foundation (Club's booster organization) help our players on the field this season.

Our boosters have identified two areas of need - team meals on the road trips and a new league mandated shot clock expense.

The MCAL mandates a club provide two shot clocks for all home games. The total cost for those two clocks is $950.  

We estimate that with trips to Neveda, San Luis Obispo, and San Diego this season, there will be 9 total team meals.

We tend to book hotels with breakfast included. The boys are on their own for lunch each day. But on each road trip, we like to build team unity by sharing dinner together as a team. Typically, at $10-$12 per head, that would be a $3800-$4600 cost for the season.

Please, give what you can afford. We realize lacrosse is an expensive endeavor and if you have a son on the club, you've already paid dues. 

Those dues only support league necessities like fields, gear, uniforms, refs, league fees, etc.

So, if you can, take this opportunity to step up and help Noma Lax this season.

Give what you can afford. Here are some suggested levels -

* $25     -    Every little bit helps.

* $100  -    Sponsor one player's road meals this season

* $200  -    Sponsor two players' meals. 

* $500  -   Sponsor an entire meal for on of the away games

*  $1,000 - Sponsor the Shot Clocks (if this is you, let us know, the clocks will carry your name on them as sponsor)

Any and all donations can help. Donations at the $200 and above level will include a mention of your generosity in our game day broadcasts as well as your choice of a Noma Lax Tshirt or hat.

Even if you can't afford to give, please share this fundraiser with friends and family of Noma Lacrosse.  If you can afford to give, we appreciate any and all amounts.

When you look up the definition of Blue-Collar you will find the following "dependable and hard-working rather than showy or spectacular."   This has been the mantra of Sonoma State Lacrosse for many years and this year is no different.

Our team has been faced with a smaller roster this year than in years past and the schedule has been reminiscent of yesteryear with 11:00pm conditioning workouts, box lacrosse in Novato, and late night practice this spring.  

The men of Sonoma State Lacrosse have embraced this with the mantra "bootcamp brother" during these late night sessions.  These words remind them they must be willing to work hard not only as individuals but as a team to compete against the best of the best.

The 2018 season schedule features games against some familiar foes and some new ones.  The team will face 7 Top 25 teams and 4 teams who qualified for the 2017 MCLA National Tournament.

Building on the work put in by the 2017 team, this squad is expecting to compete with the best in the nation and qualify for the MCLA National Championships in Salt Lake City.

As many of you may know this team is over 90% self-funded coming from player dues and fundraising.  As we embark on this year, we are looking for friends, family, and alumni to help us achieve our goals on the field with donations to fund our challenging schedule.

Every dollar counts!  Thank you for considering donating to Sonoma State Men's Lacrosse.
