Had a terrific time!
My daughter had a terrific time at camp. She was able to learn skills that will prepare her for school & club lacrosse. She thought the exercises were helpful, the college campus was a great insight for her freshman year of college and she had fun experiencing the dorm rooms.

Thanks!
Thanks so much for the superior experience you all provided at the recent Xcelerate Nike Lacrosse camp in BW. This was truly well done from check in to check out and our daughter had a ball. Of particular note was the excellent coaching staff. We had the opportunity on four occasions to come and observe. Each time we saw care, professionalism, passion and skill being passed on to the participants...it was really inspiring for the kids and us as well. In particular, your emphasis on teaching individualized skills on a daily basis, positive reward as a teaching philosophy and helping them understand the power of being a team player were especially evident. Thanks!

Amazing!
She was sore... but that's awesome! She said the counselors and the head coach were AMAZING! Such a great experience. The only recommendation I have is to encourage no cell Phone use... sounds crazy but I think it helps the camper to stay focused. Just a thought!

Really enjoyed how much we covered!
I really enjoyed how much information we were able to cover at each station. I liked that we weren't at any specific station for too long so that we wouldn't get tired of any of the drills.
