UCLA's Women's Lacrosse is looking for a dedicated and motivated individual to head coach the program's 'B' team. The program belongs to Division II of the very competitive Western Women's Lacrosse League. Our B team typically consists of both experienced players, and players who are new to the game, so an understanding of the fundamentals of women's lacrosse is important. Last season the B team finished 3rd in the WWLL and had several players receive All-League honors.

The position's active duties as a coach would begin in late September and continue into late April. Practices are three times a week during fall ball and three to four times a week during season. The team travels across California to play other WWLL teams, and typically has a game or tournament every weekend or every other weekend from February to April. College-level playing experience is preferred. Previous coaching experience is desired but not necessary. A valid CA driver's license is required. This is a part-time, paid position.

For application and information, please contact Isabel Angell, President via e-mail.

Tuesday, September 28 - The annual introductory fall meeting for all new and returning players will be held in the John Wooden Center.

Thursday, September 30 - Players-only practice on the UCLA IM Field.

Tuesday, October 5 - First official fall ball practice on the UCLA IM Field.

We hope to see you out there! Please check back for updates regarding fall meeting and practice times. Have any other questions about fall ball? Send us an email, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
