*Field players will be placed in small groups based on experience and can be
placed with team mates from school team - learning and practicing the latest
stick skills in the women’s game; core conditioning with kettlebells; improving
your first step through speed training drills; developing more advanced shooting
and defensive techniques; learning basic rules of the game (if first-year
player). Goalies will receive specialized training. (USLacrosse membership not
required.)
**Coaches will receive drill packets (new drills for speed training, etc.) and
rotate among player stations to learn more from clinic coaches about
conditioning their athletes, goalie drills, defensive strategies, shooting
skills, etc.
Please note each year’s clinic has new drills, new structure so coaches and
players are not repeating what they’ve already learned!! We like to keep things
innovative and fun each year!!!
