The Houlagan difference
We care about your son on the field. And everything beyond it.
Boys Lacrosse, Family First
Houlagan is a small program by design. That is not a limitation. It is the whole point.
When you join Houlagan you are not a number on a roster. You are part of a community that shows up for each other at tournaments, invests in each player's growth as a person, and makes every family feel like they belong here. We compete hard. We also know your son's name, his position, and what he is working on.
Tournament tents, not just sidelines
Houlagan families experience lacrosse together. Our tournament environment is where the family culture is most visible. You will feel it the first time you show up.
Life lessons beyond lacrosse
We teach the game. We also teach accountability, resilience, and teamwork. The lessons players learn at Houlagan carry into classrooms, relationships, and careers.
Direct, honest feedback
Coaches give players real feedback in the moment. Not just encouragement. Real guidance that helps them improve and understand their game.
Financial aid available
Need-based financial aid is available to families who qualify. Every player with the passion to play should have a path to play here.
College Recruiting
Hundreds of players. One proven process.
Houlagans has helped hundreds of Seacoast athletes navigate the college recruiting process, with direct relationships across D1, D2, and D3 programs and annual Recruiting Nights every spring and fall.
