History
Tuckahoe Lacrosse Club, as it was originally named, was
established in the fall of 2003.
Several parents of “lacrosse-craving” boys decided to start a team for
boys at Tuckahoe Middle School. Many of
the boys were introduced to the sport through the Geronimo lacrosse program and
wanted to continue playing with boys from their own school. Although not officially connected to Henrico
County Public Schools, thus was established the first school-based club lacrosse
program in the county. Tuckahoe Lacrosse
Club added a girls team in the spring of 2005.
"Rebels" was later added to the club’s name to emphasize its
connection to Freeman High School. Much
of the success of the boys and girls lacrosse programs at Freeman is
attributable to Tuckahoe Rebels Lacrosse.
About

Tuckahoe Rebels Lacrosse fields two teams: a 6th/7th/8th grade boys team and a 6th/7th/8th grade girls team. Each team is led by experienced
coaches. Players are expected to attend
all practices and games unless excused in advance, give 100% effort and exhibit
a positive attitude and good sportsmanship at all times. Playing time is merit based
and will be determined by the coach based on performance, effort and attitude. Tuckahoe Rebels Lacrosse is a competitive
club program and will approach every game to win.
