| About The Program |
- A beginner is a player who has played the game for less than two years
- Age, however, is a major factor. For example a player who is bigger, faster and more capable of understanding the concepts will progress much quicker than a player of a younger age and who has a more difficult time trying to interpret what it is they are taught
- The Beginner program is an overview of basic fundamental skills and game concepts that players who have just picked up the game need to learn and understand in order to assure proper development in the game
- The basic and fundamental skills exercised in the program are the skills in which even the top players in the sport to date work on day to day:
- Stick work– The most important skill a player has. The longer a person has played and how often he practices is single handedly measured by his stick skills. (Catching-Throwing-Cradling
- Every session is comprised of a handful of drills in which stick skills are constantly being worked on through-out this program.
- We provide the players with a take home exercise that is the single most important practice exercise one can do while trying to grow as a lacrosse player. (WALL BALL)
Most importantly, in the beginner program we do our best to show the kids what a great and fun sport lacrosse is and how much it has to offer, as it is the fastest growing sport in the country. |

I'm mother of a boy with autism that had a birthday party at NESA this past weekend. I wanted to say that Matt and Joe were absolutely wonderful with the children and I was really impressed by the way they worked with the group. The children had a great time. THANK YOU.
