by Andy Flax posted 07/21/2014 Who: Little Laxers (Boys) with Birthdates between 9/1/05 and 8/31/07.
What: Little Laxers 2!
When: August 18-22, 9:00am-11:00am
Where: Whistler Park (South Field), same location as Little Laxers 1.
Details:
This second session of Little Laxers for 2014 is open to all boys eligible by their birthdays. No experience is necessary, nor is participation in Little Laxers 1 earlier this year. At this age, almost all kids are new and nobody needs to “catch up” skill or knowledge-wise. All of our work revolves around our program motto: “Sportsmanship, Effort, Fun.” We include these themes every day.
We will work on many lacrosse-related skills through drills and games with local coaches. Our coaches all have experience working with young children and are great role models for growing athletes. Our staff has experience at the youth, high school, college, and even international level of play.
In round two, we will play new games and incorporate different drills so that anybody that was in Little Laxers 1 gets a brand-new experience while working on the fundamentals started in the first session.
Skills we will work on:
-Running, Coordination, General Athleticism
-Cradling, Ground Balls, Passing, and Catching with a Lacrosse Stick
-Offensive, Defensive, and Teamwork Basics, applicable to a variety of sports
-Basics of Lacrosse
-Throwing Water Balloons at Coaches
There is no prorating of the Registration Fee or any dropping-in. Parents need to decide if it is worth it based on how many days their player can attend. It is not a problem if a child misses days as far as camp goes.
