The Southern California Lacrosse Association (SCLA) is a volunteer organization that governs all organized spring youth lacrosse activities in northern Los Angeles and surrounding areas. The broad objective of the SCLA is to assist in developing, organizing, and promoting the sport of lacrosse at the youth and high school levels in Ventura, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara Counties.

The SCLA is a 501(c)(3) with a board comprised of a representative from each participating community youth lacrosse program.  Participating towns include Newbury Park, Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village, Simi Valley, Agoura Hills, Ventura, San Fernando Valley, Pasadena, Santa Clarita, Calabasas, and Ventura.

Created in 2006, the SCLA non-profit structure originated from the Conejo Valley Lacrosse League (CVLL). As the sport grew in the individual townships in northern Los Angeles, the SCLA was formed to manage the continued growth at the community level.  There are now over 1400 youth boys and girls participants in the SCLA and lacrosse remains the fastest growing sport in America.
