Lacrosse is one of the newer activities at Birch Rock. It was started in the 1980s.
Lacrosse is run on the hilltop, around the upper tennis court. Although camp has a limited supply of equipment, campers often bring their own sticks and equipment for playing. Most of the lacrosse at camp is based on mastering the fundamentals, as there are not enough players to field a team and run full-contact drills.
The original two lacrosse badges are the Williams and Hobart, named after the division III colleges with historically strong lacrosse programs. The Williams is the equivalent of the junior badge, and the Hobart the senior. The Hopkins badge was added by Thomas Joyce when he was the lacrosse counselor in the late 1990s. The Hopkins badge is the equivalent of the advanced badge in most other activities.
