GROWING THE GAME

STICKS FOR SUCCESS

INDIGENOUS COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

HEROES OF LAS VEGAS

Camp 99: High-Performance Academy

Camp 99 inspired by team co-owner Wayne Gretzky, is in partnership with the Vegas Golden Knights and Henderson Silver Knights. Designed for young athletes of the Vegas Junior Golden Knights, Camp 99 focuses on building skills, teamwork, and sportsmanship while participating in dry-land training with their teams. By embracing a multi-sport model, young athletes develop skills faster and become more developed across each sport they play. Held each summer in Las Vegas, it’s become a cornerstone for growing the game and inspiring the next generation of players in Southern Nevada.

Community Camps & Clinics

The Las Vegas Desert Dogs are dedicated to nurturing the growth of lacrosse in our community through a series of camps and clinics held throughout the year. We're excited to provide numerous opportunities for participants to learn and refine their skills, all under the guidance of Desert Dog players. Our ongoing efforts to promote and expand the game of lacrosse in Las Vegas are something we’re truly passionate about!

Goals Donation

In the fall of 2022, the franchise donated close to 40 lacrosse goals to parks and community fields throughout Clark County and the City of Las Vegas. From the very early days of establishing our franchise, a common theme we heard from members of the local lacrosse community here in Las Vegas was the desire to have new and updated lacrosse goals for recreational use. Goals were donated to fields throughout the Las Vegas valley including McCarran Marketplace Fields, Viper Park, Heritage Park and more.
