We have three sessions per day. A great deal of instruction takes place in the early part of the day, demonstrations and instruction mid-day, and games during the evening session. We also like to throw in a number of ‘fun’ activities like our fastest shot contest, freestyle/skills competition, lax golf, pool time, rec time, and camper vs. coach game.

“I want to let you know how much I enjoyed your camp. It was an awesome experience! The coaching staff was very supportive, encouraging, positive and made the sessions fun. I met some great people that I will remain in touch with. This camp increased my knowledge of the game and my confidence level grew. I won't hesitate in recommending this camp for other lacrosse players. Thanks!”
