What We Are
Cape Fear Shamrocks is a youth travel organization that provides a positive lacrosse experience for players and families. We are an organization that prides itself on family, education, and community well-being.
Mission Statement
The Cape Fear Shamrocks organization is dedicated to providing a competitive lacrosse experience that builds character and integrity. We are committed to promoting and coaching the game of lacrosse in and around the Eastern Carolinas. We will strive to mentor and develop each individual into a “triple threat player”: students, athletes, and leaders who are prepared to compete in high school and college level programs.
What We Are Trying to Do
Cape Fear Shamrocks has the best coaching staff in coastal North Carolina, but our success is more than just teaching lacrosse. We want Shamrock players to learn about character, leadership, community service, and what it takes to be a good teammate. Many organizations can teach athletes to become good lacrosse players. We want competitive lacrosse players that have skills on and off the field.
On and Off the Field
Family, academics, teambuilding, and hard work are the cornerstones that the Cape Fear Shamrocks were founded upon. Team founders Eddie Jones and Steve Phillips have created more than just a Lacrosse Team, they’ve crafted a golden opportunity for young players to build leadership skills, character, integrity, and be noticed by college recruiters. Most of all, the Shamrocks are a non-profit that have given back to countless charities and work to always better their community.
