Rise Lacrosse Club began in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in 2020 as a training program and later developed into a nonprofit club-team organization. Its goals are unusually explicit: build teams around player development and being a great teammate, raise the level of local lacrosse through coach development, and serve the community with accessible programming. Rise primarily competes in summer after town lacrosse ends, with a shorter fall season, keeping the club calendar closely tied to the local game rather than replacing it.
