Varsity Boys Lacrosse 2026

 

Program Overview

There are two levels of boys lacrosse teams at Danvers High School: varsity and junior varsity. Our boys lacrosse program is overwhelmed with talented athletes, which creates for a competitive selection process in the spring. Each team practices daily and has a full schedule of games. Within the Northeastern Conference, our lacrosse teams face off against schools in the surrounding area such as Beverly, Gloucester, North Reading, Peabody and Salem to name a few.

Our boys lacrosse team hosts its home match ups at Morse Field at Dr. Deering Stadium.  The program is strongly supported by the community, and all games throughout the season are well-attended. Under the direction of head coach Dan Ritchie the boys are given a strong foundation in the fundamentals in lacrosse, which develops into more advanced strategies and tactics throughout the season. Our entire coaching staff seeks to improve the skills of our lacrosse players, while emphasizing the importance of character, leadership and commitment. The Danvers High School lacrosse program seeks to instill values into its players that stretch far beyond the playing field. We hope that our boys leave the high school lacrosse program not only as more developed players, but also as matured individuals who value teamwork and dedication.
