Overview
Curriculum
As the game continues to evolve, so do we. We are constantly studying the top coaches, teams, players, and systems in lacrosse to bring you some of the best training the state offers. Hundreds of reps and advanced skills in an atmosphere where players can learn and retain technical and tactical aspects of the game.
Offensive Curriculum
- The Goal: To build multi-dimensional offensive players who are dangerous dodgers, feeders, and scorers who can make quick and effective decisions under pressure.
- The Skills: DASH Dodging, Scoring Form and Velocity, on-the-run progressions, 1,2,3 scoring, up the hash/island work, and 2-man game mastery.
Defensive Curriculum
- The goal: Build multi-dimensional defenders who excel on-ball, off-ball, in sliding positions, and transition. Defenders who dictate the pace and direction of the dodger/ball thrive under pressure and play in the gray.
- The Skills: Footwork, battle approaches, checks, show/slide and recoveries, defending two-man game, verbal and non-verbal communication, and offensive skills to build the complete defender.
Faceoff Curriculum
- The Goal: Build multi-dimensional faceoff specialists who can dominate and adjust against any player or style. Players who not only dominate at the x but also dominate ground balls, defense, and in transition.
- The Skills: Form, hand speed, moves, ball control, counters, exits, goldfish memory, ground balls, and winning wing play. Players will also jump in with the offense and defensive groups for a drill or two each session to work on skills they need to become a complete player.
