Team Washington - Youth Clinic & Benefit, February 22nd

Team Washington will be hosting a benefit youth clinic on Saturday, February 22nd, for a local coach and his family who are battling breast cancer. Coaches from around the state are coming together to run the event as a way to help this family, as well as giving back to the local lacrosse community. The list of coaches participating include the winners of EVERY STATE CHAMPIONSHIP for the last 15 years. Without question, this is the strongest group of coaches you will ever see on one field working with our kids.

On Saturday February 22nd, these coaches are coming together to teach youth in our area and to raise money for one of our most valuable and loved coaches, Dejon Hush. The Hush family is battling breast cancer AND insurance companies.

100% of the revenue generated from this event will be used to help the Hush family with medical expenses. Further, for every dollar we raise at this event, Kirkland Lacrosse will match 100% up to $10,000! All coaches are donating their time for free and even the field expense has been donated.
