About Swax Lax Lacrosse and our owner, Shaun Rosenow.

Swax Lax Lacrosse (Swax) is known for offering the best lacrosse camps and clinics in New Jersey for beginner and intermediate players. At Swax Lax Lacrosse, children are encouraged to feel at ease with a lacrosse stick in their hands and connected to coaches who genuinely care about their development as players and as people. Our comfortable learning environment and positive coaching is perfect for new players who are eager to learn lacrosse and be part of a team.

Swax’s lacrosse programs are open to girls in K-5th grades and boys in K-3rd grades from any school or town that’s accessible to our New Jersey locations. Swax encourages you to sign your child up for one of our programs regardless of your family’s ability to pay.

As an All American collegiate lacrosse player, the owner, Shaun Rosenow, has a successful background in sports. You'll see her running the streets of Summit, competing on the paddle court, and volunteering at YMCA basketball. Sports are a way of life for her family, because of the lessons it teaches, and the relationships formed. It is a privilege to introduce kids to this great sport, and see it begin at Swax.

This is how it started.

Swax Lax Lacrosse was founded originally as Sum It Up for Girls in 2008 by Laura Gump, with the mission of encouraging K–8th grade girls to become more self-confident through the sport of lacrosse. As the program grew, it expanded to boys, and has since become a right of passage for young athletes.

In 2024, after two years as Director, Shaun Rosenow took over Swax Lax Lacrosse as owner. With the same principles in place, she grew the program to meet the popularity, and expanded to Rumson NJ.

The car magnets, tie-dye t-shirts, and picture frames serve as Swax memorabilia, providing enjoyment for the kids and a sense of nostalgia for the parents. These items act as timeless reminders, marking the moment of their kids' first introduction to lacrosse.
