Welcome from the Presidents

Welcome to the website of the Wembley Lacrosse Club - home of the Wolves and Waves!

The men’s and women’s clubs are now combined under the one banner of the Wembley Lacrosse Club.

When the Wolves/Waves Amalgamation Taskforce first met in December 2005 the following reasons for joining the two clubs were identified:

To reflect and enhance the sense of community and common purpose between the two clubs, underscored by the number of members concerned with both sectors.
Economies of scale – volunteer help, insurance
Spreading of risk
Sharing of resources
Continued and improved government support
Increased marketing and sponsorship opportunities
Cohesive strategies for planning and development
Making it easier to attract new members, especially families.

As well as the usual office bearers, the board of directors now includes a Director of Men’s Lacrosse and a Director of Women’s Lacrosse. In liaison with others, these two directors oversee the day-to-day running of their respective sectors such as appointment of coaching staff and the various issues involved in getting teams on to the field each weekend.

The new combined structure has demonstrated flexibility, new ideas and the desire to work together. The future looks promising for our bigger, brighter club.

This site will provide you with a range of information, catering for primary school-aged girls and boys through to senior women and men. It will also highlight social activities, along with the achievements of our teams and players, in the hope that visitors might get an insight into being part of Wembley Lacrosse.

To those of you who may be visiting our website with a view to joining and being part of 'the fastest sport on two feet', we encourage you to contact our administrators through the contacts page.

Again, welcome to Wembley Lacrosse.

President

CLUBROOMS & FACILITIES

Wembley Lacrosse Club is based at Floreat Oval, on the corner of Oceanic Drive and Ulster Road, Floreat. Both the Wolves and the Waves use these facilities.

As part of the Town of Cambridge's Floreat Sporting Precinct development, Floreat Oval facilities and surrounds were recently updated. Part of the development was the refurbishment and extension of our clubrooms and the installation of a further two 12m lighting towers.

Our clubrooms and fields are now amongst the best in the state. With improved kitchen and bar facilities, a wide viewing balcony and the increase in clubroom floor space all looks well for an action- packed social calendar and our bids for State and National championships and tournaments.
