Piedmont, California

Skyline Coaching
One of the longest established in Northern California, Skyline Lacrosse Club offers lacrosse to BOYS and GIRLS in grades 2-8 in the East Bay. During the FALL we host clinics and scrimmages in the Oakland/Piedmont area, with practices 1-2 times per week.  In the SPRING, we offer developmental instruction for younger players and competitive teams for older players.  Practices are from 1-3 times per week with games on the weekends. We compete in the Northern California Junior Lacrosse Association (NCJLA) League, playing teams from Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties. 

Skyline uses  both paid Coaches and volunteer Parent Coaching Assistants.

Coaches are paid based on lacrosse experience, past coaching experience, and number of years with Skyline Lacrosse.

Parent Coaching Assistants
help as assistant coaches or co-coaches. This position is unpaid. Skyline guides parent coaches through a training schedule which includes; attendence at the NCJLA Coaching seminars in January, and Level I and Level II online courses provided by US LAX.

PCA Seminar attendance is required for all coaches; registration fees are paid by the Club. In 2001, US Lacrosse began a partnership with the Stanford University-based Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA). PCA was formed with the goal of changing the culture in youth sports to improve the experience of athletes at all ages, with the mission of “transforming youth sports so sports can transform youth.” US Lacrosse and the PCA sponsor the PCA Workshop Grant Program. Get more information on the partnership and the PCA.  

US Lacrosse membership is paid for by Skyline and
NCJLA Coaches Convention attendence is sponsored by Skyline. 

Coaches also receive a copy of the NCJLA Lacrosse Rules and Game Protocols and a copy of the Skyline Coaches Handbook with training information and recommended drill sequences (coming soon! Also girls' assistants recieve a copy of "A Manual of Women's Lacrosse Drills".
