How players come up here
The programs a Livingston player moves through, youngest first.
-
Elementary school
Rec and town entry programs
Town recreation programs across Essex County feed the same youth leagues that serve Livingston-area families. Girls can enter as early as PreK through clinic formats, while boys programs follow the same March-through-mid-June season, giving young players a structured first look at the game before middle school league play begins.
-
Middle school
Junior league competition
Boys programs in the Livingston area compete in the North Jersey Junior Lacrosse League, the US Lacrosse-affiliated league covering northern New Jersey through eighth grade. Girls compete in the New Jersey Junior Girls Lacrosse League, which provides a full travel season from third grade and runs through the end of May.
-
High school
NJSIAA spring season
High school lacrosse in New Jersey is a spring sport under the NJSIAA. Practices open in March, league games run through April and May, and the state tournament begins in late May and finishes in early June. Programs across Essex County and the surrounding region regularly reach the tournament field.
-
Summer and fall
Club and travel play
Club and travel lacrosse runs through the summer and into fall, with tournament weekends keeping players sharp in the off-season. Tri-State Lacrosse runs travel teams, camps, and clinics for boys across the region, and the fall ball and indoor winter clinic calendar fills the gap before the spring NJSIAA season restarts.

Talk to the STXZ teamCan I pick the coach I want?
STXZ matches you with an independent coach based on your location, the player's level, position, and goals. You review that coach's profile by email first and can request a different match before anything is billed.
Is this a fit for a brand-new player in Livingston?
Yes. Tell STXZ where your player is starting so the match accounts for their level. Beginners work on catching, cradling, and ground balls; experienced players focus on their position.
