Ridgewood Girl Collecting Used Lacrosse Equipment For Kids

RIDGEWOOD, NJ — A village lacrosse player and volunteer coach is collecting lacrosse equipment to give to underprivileged players.

Kate Maxwell is a volunteer lacrosse coach in Harlem, New York.

"I work with the girls and I love seeing how playing lacrosse makes them so happy. One problem that the girls have is having enough enough-if any- equipment to play with," Maxwell said. "Many of the girls use old, broken lacrosse sticks, and others don’t have any at all."

Maxwell wants people to donate goggles, sticks, balls, and any new or used lacrosse equipment they can.

Anyone interested in donating can email Maxwell at katepmaxlax@gmail.com.
