Description:
Lacrosse is one of the oldest team sports in America, started on the East Coast
by the Native Americans in the 12th century. Suit up and come find our why it
has grown to be one of the fastest growing sports in the country. Lacrosse
combines the basic skills used in soccer, basketball, and hockey into one fast
paced, high scoring game. Athletes will learn all the fundamentals of stick
handling, cradling, passing, and shooting, all in a fun, non-checking
environment. Our staff will ensure that campers not only learn the sport of
lacrosse, but also important life skills such as respect, teamwork, and
dicipline. Designed for ages 6-12, every athlete will come away with a deep
understanding of the game and its traditions.
Ability:
The Intermediate ability level is a comprehensive camp that focuses on developing a young player by refining his or her
skills. These camps are taught through fast-paced drills, skill-building exercises, and game-speed scrimmages in a more
competitive environment. Emphasis is placed on mastering the rules and etiquette. The player needs to have a basic
understanding of the game and its skills. Previous participation in a Skyhawks Sports Develop camp or playing in a
league or club should suffice.

Pierce had a wonderful introduction to Lacrosse. That says a lot about his coaches, Andy and Keith. They were great!
Need I say more? Pierce wants to keep on playing so now I am looking for a lacrosse team/club locally. Thanks!
