Get UCLA Lacrosse to Nationals!

We are the UCLA women’s lacrosse program, which consists of two highly competitive teams with a combined 65 players. Our student-athletes are extremely dedicated to the sport and commit more than 12 hours per week solely to lacrosse on top of their rigorous academic schedules. Our program strives to provide a highly competitive environment that encourages our players to push themselves on and off the field. We have players who have majors that range from psychology and molecular biology all the way to international development studies and political science. Despite our busy lives, we all carve out energy and time every week to cultivate a positive culture throughout our program and foster a sense of belonging and closeness. This community lasts beyond our undergraduate years and can be seen through our close ties with our alumni, who were a part of this program anywhere from last season to 27 years ago.

This season has been one for the books for both of our teams. After over a year and a half without being able to play competitively, our players were beyond excited to get back out on the field. The Division 2 team moved up this season from Provisional and has the largest roster they have had in years. This season, the Division 2 team has played competitive games against Pepperdine, CSUSM, Cal Poly, and stands right now with a 5 - 2 record. 

After ending the 2020 season ranked 2nd in the Nation, the Division 1 team is now standing at No. 6 and the only California team to be nationally ranked. They are undefeated in their league and worked hard for their 7 - 2 overall record. They beat the reigning national champions, Pitt, in an overtime game on February 20th which secured their spot in the top 10. With the competitive league season coming to a close, they are looking ahead to compete at the conference playoffs in April in Arizona as well as attending the WCLA National Championship in Round Rock, Texas in the beginning of May!

UCLA Lacrosse is a fully self-funded team and receives NO money from UCLA Athletics. Most of our costs are covered with our member dues and other fundraising put on by our members. That being said, we have high amounts of travel this year in order to play the best competition with which comes high costs. We travel to Northern California in our regular season, as well as Arizona and Texas for playoffs and nationals. Please help us as we continue to fight hard and hopefully bring home a natty!

UCLA Women’s Lacrosse isn’t just a team of players out on the field. As a program, we foster a competitive, supportive, and inspiring environment for female student-athletes at UCLA to not only continue to grow their skills in the sport of lacrosse but also to be a part of a Brulax family. As a program, we participate in philanthropy events, such as donating gear to clothing drives and raising supplies for food drives. We also host annual summer camps and clinics to help coach and spread the sport of lacrosse to younger players who have the hopes of one day joining the Brulax family as well. Through all of this and the time each of us dedicates to this sport and to this team, we grow such close bonds with one another that would be difficult to replicate in any other environment. We work with and for each other, both on and off the field, which makes being part of this team such an invaluable and unforgettable part of our college experience. Surrounding ourselves with strong, hard-working, and talented women, both present and past players, we are successfully cultivating an environment that will translate to important life skills that will help us succeed past graduation. The impact of sports on women has been demonstrated by their success in the business world. Studies show that 94% of women with C-suite positions played sports, with 52% continuing sports to a university level. Your contributions to UCLA Women’s Lacrosse allow us to continue to grow our Brulax family and help steer us towards successful futures.
