Wake Forest Whippets Lacrosse

The Wake Forest Whippets has been providing recreational lacrosse programming for girls in the Wake Forest area since 2012. Recreational teams and leagues are critical to the growth of any sport, and the Whippets program welcomes girls of all skill levels in grades 1-12. We have a large group of passionate and dedicated coaches.

Our goal is to grow the sport in our area and to strengthen our local high school teams by teaching the fundamentals of the game.
