Hammers Lacrosse Club

The Evergreen Lacrosse Club was founded in October 2014 by Ricky Reyes and club President/Managing Member, Chris Bourassa. The training-only program was based out of the Evergreen Sportsplex in Leesburg, Virginia and aimed to provide top notch instruction and training opportunities for athletes in the area no matter what their goal may have been whether it was to prepare themselves to play at the highest level or even learn how to play the game. In the Summer of 2015, the Evergreen Lacrosse Club fielded their first three teams - Evergreen HS, Evergreen U15 and Evergreen U13. The travel program revolved around the development of the athlete and was accomplished through high quality coaching, top notch facilities, and numerous training opportunities each week that they could take advantage of. As the years went on, the focus remained the same and the club quickly grew from three teams to as high as ten in a short period of time while continuing to offer year-round programming for Boys and Girls in the community. In the Summer of 2019, the Evergreen Lacrosse Club began its transition to Hammers Lacrosse as a way to be consistent with our sister clubs (Hammers Football and Hammers Field Hockey). Despite wearing new colors and a new logo, our mission of developing our athletes and pushing them to be the best versions of themselves has never changed. Since the launch of our travel program in 2015, we have proudly sent over 65 student-athletes to go on and play at the NCAA Division I, II and III levels while also serving thousands of boys and girls from all over Virginia and Maryland. In the Fall of 2019, Hammers Co-Founder Ricky Reyes, relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina in order to pursue a college coaching opportunity at NCAA Division II Queens University of Charlotte. While there, Reyes began breaking ground for the expansion of Hammers Lacrosse into North Carolina where the focus is consistent and will revolve around providing year-round training opportunities
