ASCENT

A Developmental Youth Lacrosse Program for girls & boys grades 5-8

Spring 2026 Registration opens December 29, 2025

Why ASCENT?

At Utah County Ascent, we offer something different: a purpose-driven developmental program designed specifically for 5th-8th grade girls & boys who want more than rec—but aren’t ready (or interested) in the demands of a full club team.

• Focus on Fundamentals – Unlike many club teams that prioritize competition, we focus on building strong individual skills. From footwork to stick handling to game awareness, we lay the foundation players need to succeed at the high school level—and beyond.
• Positive, Personalized Coaching – Our experienced coaches create a supportive and encouraging environment where girls feel confident to learn, make mistakes, and grow. Small coach-to-player ratios allow us to give individualized feedback and attention to every athlete.
• Affordable and Accessible – Club fees can be overwhelming. Rec leagues may be affordable, but often lack consistent instruction. We believe in high-quality training at a reasonable cost, with no hidden travel or gear fees—so more families can be part of the climb.
• Preparation without Pressure – We teach the game with intention—not intensity. Our players learn to compete with integrity, teamwork, and grit, without the pressure of tryouts, rankings, or long-distance travel. It’s a safe space to fall in love with the sport and build confidence at the same time.
• Built for the Future – We work hand-in-hand with local high school and club coaches to align our training with what players will need when they move up. Whether your daughter is aiming to play high school lacrosse—or just wants to be part of something empowering—Ascent is where that journey begins!

Mission Statement:

To provide affordable, accessible, and high-quality lacrosse training that empowers young athletes to build strong fundamentals, grow in confidence, and prepare to compete at the high school and club level—all within a positive, personalized, and fun coaching environment.

Coaching Philosophy:

We believe every kid should have the opportunity to learn the game in a supportive, empowering environment—regardless of experience level or background.

Utah County Ascent training lays the foundation for long-term success. Our focus is on teaching the fundamentals with clarity, using personalized instruction and intentional practice plans to meet each athlete where they are and help them to grow.

We aim to develop more than just skills—we build confidence through positive reinforcement, teamwork, and consistent progress. Our practices are structured but fun, competitive but encouraging. We want players to leave every session not only better at lacrosse, but more excited about the sport and more confident in themselves.

By the time they leave our program, our athletes are ready to compete at the next level—and love the journey it took to get there.
