Learned a lot.
I really learned a lot and I am really glad I got to work with some of the greatest coaches in the game! There was so much talent at this camp.

This camp is really fun and challenging. You are provided many chances to learn skills as well as display your own. The coaches and counselors are helpful and very approachable for any questions you have. I would recommend this camp to anybody who is interested in competitive lacrosse.
